More Info:
Ruth Angell offers a refuge of calm in the beauty of her debut solo album. Her beautifully crafted lyrics are sensitive - drawing on her own experiences, circumstances and situations, her hopes and her fears. Each story is embellished by inspirations from the wonders of nature and the ever changing landscapes around her home and encountered on her travels. Classically trained at Birmingham Conservatoire as a violinist and composer Ruth has used her composing talents to focus on using a variety of strings to build stunning landscapes to each of her songs. The album has already drawn high praise from Ashley Hutchings with whom she has worked on a number of his projects both band and trio formats. He describes Hlywing as"a truly wonderful album from my dear friend and terrific musician Ruth Angell who I frequently turn to in performance and recording as an important collaborator in my projects. The album's unusual title Hlywing (pronounced 'Hu-lee-weenguh') is from an old English word for shelter and refuge and this album is certainly somewhere to go to escape the rigours and troubles of everyday life.Email Signup
