Before there was Ben + Vesper, there was Ben, and there was Vesper.  They each created all kinds of wonderful projects, musical and otherwise, that made many many people happy.  We're proud to feature one of those projects, Vesper's 2003 album 'Comfort', as a Sounds Familyre Related Release. 

Click here to read a review, here to sample one of Comfort's delicacies, and here to order.

Also, we wanted you all to be aware that Vesper (and Ben) have a new line of handmade clothes!  Read more about it, or just cut to the chase!

We are very proud to announce that Wovenhand's much anticipated TEN STONES will be released in September 9, 2008.

Take a jaunt over to our blog to see the TEN STONES album cover, and to HEAR the new single 'Kicking Bird'. 

The fourth full-length release under the moniker Wovenhand, TEN STONES is produced by Edwards and Daniel Smith (Danielson), engineered by Smith and Emil Nikolaisen (Serena Maneesh), and features the formidable talents of Peter Van Laerhoven (guitar), former 16 Horsepower bandmate Pascal Humbert (bass), Garrison (drums), Nikolaisen (guitar), and Danielson’s Elin K. Smith (vocals).

We're also pleased to announce that Wovenhand will be doing a U.S. tour very soon.  Check back soon for details...

Hello Everyone! 

We are very excited to introduce to you our good friends Ortolan (pronounced "ord-a-lin").  They recorded four songs with Daniel Smith this past summer, and the music is just so doggone good we would be remiss if we didn't call it to your attention.  Take a listen here!

We'll have more information about the group real soon.  In the meantime, to satisfy your curiosity about just what an ortolan actually is, click here (when this act is the talk of the town, you'll be ahead of the game with Ortolan trivia!).

There are a couple shows coming up, so if you find yourselves in the wildes of New Jersey any time in the next few weeks, treat yourselves to a special night of very special music!
