This richly allegorical album explores how a single, vivid memory can shape who we are; resurfacing and altering our thoughts and recollections as the years go by. The album's very structure is an approximation of how such a memory is forged; each song radiates out from a seed memory which unfolds like a lotus jewel in Field of Flowers, the second-last song and the only \"straight\" narrative song of this remarkable album.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe album then closes with Standing On The Sea, a dreamlike journey on the beach that uncovers \"a shard of sand smoothed emerald glass \/ and a change in the light\", layering the dreams of childhood and the memories of adulthood into a woozy contemplation of eternity and the cyclic, ever evolving nature of memory.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSea Glass was recorded using a number of non-western instruments including qanun (Persian dulcimer), kora (African harp), koto (Japanese stringed instrument) and Indian percussion, with a heady female chorus (Laura Jean, Lisa Salvo, Hannah Cameron, Michelle Surowiec) reprised throughout the album, woven through the narrative like a recurring dream.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Flux of Moments\u003cbr\u003eAll Those Stars\u003cbr\u003eIn the Shade\u003cbr\u003eStrange Days\u003cbr\u003eThe Unquiet Tide\u003cbr\u003eIn the Water\u003cbr\u003eThe Black Coast\u003cbr\u003eField of Flowers\u003cbr\u003eStanding on the Sea\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Mistletone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48614271942849,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/grand-salvo-sea-glass.jpg?v=1725162087","url":"https:\/\/hathillrecords.com.au\/products\/grand-salvo-sea-glass-vinyl-lp","provider":"Hat Hill Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
