These are tracks from my new, original musical -working title The Wilderness. I just started writing the script after realizing that what I thought was a typical song-cycle, was working its way into a much larger story.
Typically, I'll go through periods where I'm writing songs with a similar theme or emotional standpoint, but after looking back at my songwriting over the past several months, I realized that a large portion were dealing with fairy tales, witches, and that type of thing. Then I realized that some of the songs I've been writing over the past several years are also written from the same fictional character's point of view. So, here I go headfirst into another large project...
Imagine falling asleep under a tree and waking up in a Grimm fairy tale.
Initially, I believe this story should be told with a shadow puppet theater, live music, narration, and ambient sound.
