A new calf sparkles in the field at dawn with after-birth upon her. Standing strong and brave with wobbly legs in a precarious world. With totally fearless surrender she steps forward, still wet from the inner universe of the before birth being. With the same naked abandon we offer this 3rd long-player by Bird By Snow. Ten free-pop-mantras, ancient-babies of modern song.The most fertile Bird By Snow record (so far) each side of this album has its own name, in order to give the tunes more mind-space to flourish and expand… Side A is “Songbread” and side B is “Another Ocean.” In this record-world we find BBS harvesting perspectives in an old-growth forest of ontology & swimming joyfully in wide-wonder-waters of multi-instrumentalism. Cellos, drones, pianos, field-recordings, tape-collage & all manner of drumming, strumming & singing confer and conspire here. Many of these songs have been two years in the making, grown and regrown on musical tours through the generous world. Songs with fresh-washed faces, and crow’s feet in the corners of their eyes."Songbread/Another Ocean” is also some of Gnome Life’s most beautiful and ambitious packaging! The cover is a color lithograph poster, and the LP also includes a deluxe handmade booklet of literature, lyrics, ideas, and points of entry. AND a second semi-transparant poster of poetry called:"SLOW POEMS" by Fletcher Tucker (a.k.a. Bird By Snow). This edition is limited to 550 copies, and is on completely clear vinyl, and comes with a CD!
