Lyrics

Dip my brush into the ocean,
paint the colours of contrary motion.

From the source, let it be
between our souls, a moving sea.

Don't wanna give you terms and conditions
when my harbour's a few bricks short of a prison.

I taught you to dive, taught you to wade into the cold water
while you showed me that I was already the moon's dancing daughter.

Dip my brush into the ocean,
paint the colours of contrary motion.

Bristol-based psychfolk trio Hands of the Heron is a collaboration between Bec Garthwaite, Beth Roberts & Claire Vine, each of whom brings a signature songwriting style to the band. Moving effortlessly between sparse choral folk and shimmering instrumental textures, their interlocking vocal harmonies are a constant thread running through the various hues of their dreamlike, mercurial songs.
