Strangely Beautiful by Of Stone & Earth
This is our first collection of original songs, exploring the world of voice and accordion.
"Music that talks to the soul and has a connection to the world around us... It stands out from the crowd with a very individual sound that will make you think, and give a different view on the familiar" Tony Birch, Fatea Magazine
"A challenging, immersive record full of eerie wonder... Together, the two weave a slow spell, winding around in liquid spirals of sound. It is music to draw you deep into the earth, to a place where feral magic reigns... Folk music speaks to us all, at a primal level, connecting humanity through universal loves, fears, dangers and hopes. Of Stone and Earth know just how to tap into that rich vein." Chris Wheatley, The Alternate Root

We are a duo, based in Devon, using accordion and voice to explore the world of song. We perform our own original songs. We describe ourselves as an alternative 'indie' folk duo. Although the combination of voice and accordion suggests traditional folk music, we take our influences from our eclectic and different individual musical tastes. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgDCRyQjG4HrjIctgt7LfUQ
