WHAT WE SAY:

Nudging the folk & warm springtime melodicism above the distant early morning electronic haze the new LP from Black Brunswicker is a lovely fingerpicked, feelgood ambient folk soundtrack, ideal for all sorts of intimate moments & pastoral escapism.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY:

​Temple of Spring is a divergence from past releases as it draws back on ambience and textures in favor of acoustic fingerpicking and warm melodies. It’s music that celebrates the return of the sun after a cold dark northern winter spent locked up.  

The tracks in this release are the results of a series of experimentations with tunings, capos/partial capos, and fingerpicking patterns.creditsreleased April 20, 2021 

Tracks 1, 2, 3, and 6 were written during summer 2019. The rest of the tracks were written during fall-winter 2020.
