about

The second collaboration between acoustic guitarist P and multi-instrumentalist A features a number of rural guitar soundscapes inspired by the wilds of Ontario; lovers of West Coast psychedelia as well as guitarists like John Fahey, Bruce Cockburn, and Robbie Basho may well enjoy this album. The album also features an original song by Philippa, "Moonlight".
