about

Good Water is a collection of songs that give insight into the varied musical influences that have shaped this band and is their first studio album in more than 10 years. From choral & classical to roots, traditional & Celtic to rock, pop & country, elements of each have found their way onto this album, brought together masterfully in David Bottrill's hands, weaving a distinct sonic "tapestry". The song ideas explore universal themes of love, struggle, perseverance, overcoming, redemption and, ultimately, hope.
