My father sky has finally come to get me
It’s the dawning of the mountainous spring
Sweet Mother Earth has called her maidens from me
Moving my sisters on to other souls
Then love pours in, teaching me that the sky is my home
Love it pours in,
It is the time to fly, it is the time to sing
To the dawning of the mountainous spring
From Mother’s womb through a valley called pro-creation
I was a lonely bird for most of my life My giving soul it has earned me my rejection
Warming up my wings to fly home
Then love pours in, teaching me that the sky is my home
Love it pours in,
It is the time to fly, it is the time to sing
To the dawning of the mountainous spring
It’s the dawning, of the mountainous spring
It’s the dawning, of the mountainous spring

Guillemot Days whisks us to a glistening shoreline, awash with 10 sublime songs full of serene hope. Compelling right from the buoyant opener Edge Of The World and Butterfly overflows with soaring, twangy sunshine. For a fave, so close with the lush vocals, melodic layers of Flowers Of Hope versus Peace And Plenty: an intriguing, modern parlour song both eerie and exquisite, voices and clarinet blending into something quite special. This album is a musical lighthouse on a dark day. Unmissable. anitajoyce

What a tribute, I haven’t the words to say how this group have been the soundtrack to my life, through good and bad.
Anything that helps is the least I can do, missed dearly. Joe Zux

Swill's Sunday night Facebook live gigs have been a rare high point in a terrible year. A superb singer and songwriter, in fine voice and the guitars sounding gorgeous. A great collection of some fine moments and some TMTCH tracks rarely heard live for years.

Well gosh, Boo. That really is an album!
The first time through was wonder and delight. Now it’s just a matter of installing it into my DNA. And so repeat play is engaged. You’ve done it again! warren wigutow
