Renowned experimental artist Hilary Woods is back with her highly anticipated new album “Acts of Light,” a fugue comprised of nine slow hypnotic dirges. Watch the official video for the track “Where The Bough Has Broken” through the YouTube player below:
Born out of excavations and explorations in feeling, intuition and physicality through sound which culminated in her 2021 EP “Feral Hymns, Acts of Light” is a disquiet personal offering to wilderness, loss, absence, mystery and love supreme. Vulnerability, majesty, and candour elicited with drone, double bass, field recordings and sacred choral chant compose its private ritual.
