About this product
'Dream From The Deep Well' is the new album from celebrated Irish singer songwriter Brigid Mae Power. Recognised as a purveyor of dreamier pop with folky leanings, this new album is a departure; a unique marriage of traditional stylings and very modern melodies; a breath-taking soundtrack which underpins her gorgeous vocal.Filled with personal tales of offspring and grandparents, the lovelorn and the lost, it's the essence of re-imagined folk music, from the traditional intro and outro that act as bookends. It's folk music, but not as we know it. In these ever-confusing and often annoying times, Brigid brings us modern folk for modern folk, with her evocative vocal, doubling back on itself with strings, steel guitar, horns and mellotron adding to it's baroque loveliness. It's waving back at her rootsy past, daubing new colours on a much-loved canvas. 'Dream From The Deep Well' is a new visionary beginning from a gifted songwriter.Elsewhere, there's the lovelorn longing of her version of Tim Buckley's 'I Must Have Been Blind', alongside a moving tribute to the late Ashling Murphy, a 23-year-old Irish primary school teacher and traditional Irish musician who was attacked and killed while jogging along the Grand Canal just outside Tullamore, County Offaly. It's a harrowing story, delivered with overwhelming compassion. In the best tradition of old school folk music, it opens up a pressing issue to a wider audience.It's an album that's politically primed and socially aware; a broadside for us all, this is Brigid Mae Power's most complete album yet.InchHer haunting voice, an instrument that raises the everyday to a near-mystical realm.Inch The Guardian.InchThe Irish singer-songwriter flits between past and present; between traditional and modern forms; between the heaven in her voice and the earthbound epiphanies of her words.Inch PitchforkA1.

![Gerd Schaller - Anton Bruckner: Symphony No. 3 in D Minor - Version 1873 & Adagio 1876 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/776b87a2-adae-4daf-b36b-796a20a6772b.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
A quest for absolute music Despite a number of setbacks, Bruckner's music has prevailed. His struggle for form and perfection was an expression of his deepest artistic conviction and an inner mission. Like Beethoven, he strove for 'absolute music' a soundscape beyond mere expression that speaks for itself. His Third Symphony in particular, the one 'where the trumpet begins the theme', is an impressive testimony to this aspiration, and it still moves us today powerful, timeless, and true.InchGerd Schaller

Brigid Mae Power paints expansive songs that are effortless, hypnotic and folk-oriented like Judee Sill, Bill Callahan and Sharon Van Etten. The third album from the celebrated singer/songwriter, 'Head Above The Water' is a coming of age opus featuring a ground-breaking amalgamation of traditional folk and country - an engaging blend of strings, bouzouki, piano and Power's distinctive vocal make this an achingly beautiful body of work.Recorded in analogue studio The Green Door in Glasgow with Alasdair Roberts co-producing alongside Brigid and Peter Broderick. It's a continuing tale of everyday survival; more diverse, different, a bigger canvas, with broader brushstrokes...Country and traditional folk rub shoulders, making for a juxtaposition of threads, with added instrumentation from five musicians lured into the studio to provide larger dynamics.InchPower meditates on the dichotomy that's always existed in her work, melding atmospheric bliss and stark desperation.Inch PitchforkInchPower invokes the elements, either in contrast to internal weather or in sympathy with it.Inch The Guardian.InchHaunting and hauntedInch (The Line Of Best Fit), 'Head Above The Water' continues in that vein becoming more ethereal, more personal and even more alluring.After two lauded albums for Tompkins Square, Brigid Mae Power releases her new album on 5th June via Fire Records.Side AA1 On A City NightA2 Wearing Red That EveA3Wedding Of A FriendA4 Not Yours To OwnA5 I Was Named After YouSide BB6 We Weren't SureB7 You Have A Quiet PowerB8 I Had To Keep My Circle SmallB9 The BlacksmithB10 Head Above The Water
