Lyrics

I spun my sorrow as a spider's web
and the more that I struggled,
the more tangled I did get
and I've found no way out yet.

I swam my sorrow as an octopus;
when I pulled free of its tentacles,
black ink blinded my eyes
and the sea swallowed my cries.

I sang my sorrow as a violin
and it was as beautiful
as silver glistening
and I lay down listening.

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.
