The Lost Words: Spell Songs
The Lost Words: Spell Songs (Quercus Records)
Inspired by the book The Lost Words by author Robert Macfarlane and artist Jackie Morris, eight musicians – Karine Polwart, Julie Fowlis, Seckou Keita, Kris Drever, Kerry Andrew, Rachel Newton, Beth Porter and Jim Molyneux – gathered together to record a magical set of songs that breathe life back into rural words that are sadly vanishing from the vocabularies of 21st-century urban children. A Top of the World in #150.
