Daughters of Elvin tour?
Jan. 19th, 2008 11:47 pmFrom the little English village that brought you Brian & Wendy Froud, Alan Lee, Terri Windling & other fantastical delights - comes Daughters of Elvin: Medieval Music & Dance Theater! They have a new album, Galdrbok: Medieval Songs of Love and Enchantment, and are considering a U.S. tour. Their director asked me to suggest some venues across the U.S., and while it's the sort of thing I ought to know, I'm afraid I don't, really. If you know of or are associated with any kind of venue that would be interested, please contact them. You can see amazing photos of their live performances (complete with dancing & masks) and hear clips from their new album on their MySpace page. If you have any suggestions, please write to them directly there. And of course, you can buy the new album, too!
To give you the flavor - there are 7 performers, led by:
KATY MARCHANT: Director, bagpipes, pipe and salterio, recorders, mask-maker
STEVE TYLER: Hurdy gurdy, gothic harp, citole
DHEVDHAS NAIR: Percussion, hammered dulcimer
