Details:
* Sieben is the one-man show of Matt Howden, lyricist and violinist. The songs are made live, without use of backing tapes. The violin is played and looped, layer upon layer, and then Matt sings and plays over the top. Sieben has performed throughout Europe:
"This is one of the most imaginative and intelligent records I''ve ever heard. It''s very sophisticated poetically, and brilliant musically." RIK - Flux Europa,
“Howden has created something celebratory, and something magical... Sex & Wildflowers is a commendable piece of work, and further proof of his remarkable talent.” Tony Dickie, Compulsion Online
"And those lyrics! Worthy of Robert Graves ''The White Goddess'' , intertwining Pantheism, Folklore, yet keeping to the writer''s own visionary intuition, are worthy of study in their own right... An excellent release indeed"
Mike Shankland, Darklife Magazine
"In a myriad of emotions the strings pour out the fuel for lust and Ogham mystery. This is a M-U-S-T H-A-V-E for everyone truly in love with the miracle of music."
Roy Liebscher, https://www.tradebit.com -
"Ogham Inside The Night... is truly a progressive album that advances our appreciation of existence and I hope will go on to be regarded as a modern classic."
Mark Coyle, The Unbroken Circle -
