when andrew and i started the conversation about a reissue of the ‘idyll’ cd, we didn’t plan on turning this into a full other album. however, it quickly became apparent that we were building something special with the additions so we kept going, and i am delighted we did.

each person i invited to do a remix has been a big part of my musical path, helping me believe in myself, encouraging me to share my art with the world, & inspiring me with their own art. deep gratitude to lacey, angela, phoebe, ludvig, james and andrew for pouring your hearts into this little project. <3 also, huge thanks to nevia pavletic for her stunning artwork!

the added alt version of ‘roses all alone’ is a little window into how my original sessions sounded before i stripped back some of the veil (which was especially noticeable on this track). and the b-side ‘make amends’ almost made it on the original album, and has been waiting for the right moment to be shared..2-years since idyll was originally released :)

thank you for listening, i hope you enjoy this collection of songs and it helps you find your own peaceful place.

warmly,
cynthia
