If you voice Scandinavian melancholy and let it run through the virtuosic fingers of an Oberlin Conservatory film score graduate, you get Silent Skies. It is the sum of two individual musical journeys that came together by coincidence; some would even call it fate. The two supremely talented protagonists, who together can boast over two decades of experience within the music industry, crossed paths by chance. The catalyst was an incredibly sensitive re-interpretation, on piano, of a composition originally written by the other artist. Immediately realising that this was not an opportunity to be missed, a swift email was sent. It suggested a collaboration, which gave birth to ideas of a musical landscape rooted in cinematic, film score music. It would be driven by some wonderfully tender and emotive piano playing, but with the added sound of some unique and charismatic vocals built around a strong and familiar melodic sensibility. The compositions are both bleak and hopeful, setting a sombre tone. And, with lyrics that stem from self-reflection and existential contemplation, the atmospheric music of Silent Skies is engrossing and hypnotizing, evoking in the listener visions for the inner eye.

Lyrics:
I’m gone …far
I had my reasons, lost
Felt lost, like this for many seasons
I run, I always run
Through Solitude for freedom
Dead are the embers, what’s left is this cold
all light here has faded now left to rest
I lie on the meadows while our souls ride on heaven’s vault
Behind the trees where our spirits danced
Lost track of time
It’s gone, it’s lost because of reasons I can’t explain
No one could explain
Alone in solitude and morning mist
In air so cold the dew persist
Osiris offers peace where I lie
I catch a glimpse of Venus on its ride
And just like that drifting satellite
all alone and through the Silent Skies
All alone and …
Dead are the embers, what’s left is this cold
all light here has faded now left to rest
I lie on the meadows while our souls ride on heaven’s vault
Behind the trees where our spirits danced
Dead are the embers what’s left is this cold
Our light here has faded now left to rest
I lie on the meadows while our souls cry forever more
Behind the trees where our spirits danced
