NEW ALBUM BY ÁINE O’DWYER OUT NOW! (3/6/13)

Second Language’s new Library Series continues apace with the release of a new album by Áine O'Dwyer, multi-instrumentalist and singer, best known for her lyrical harp playing on collaborations with Mark Fry and The A. Lords, United Bible Studies, Piano Magic and Richard Moult, among a host of others.

Effectively the follow-up to her 2011 album of improvised organ etudes, Music for Church Cleaners, the vivid, aptly titled Anything bright or startling? is Áine’s first album with vocals. With its glinting, bucolic air, offset by detours into shadowy introspection, and rolling, freeform architecture, the album pitches up close to Nico at her most reflective (The Marble Index might be a partial signpost, as might the transcendent tenor of Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks).

Anything bright or startling? comes as a 9 track CD album in a hardback book-size format designed by Andersen M Studio.

Tracklisting :
1. Falcon/Egress/Coiled Eyes
2. Hyperbolia/Boatwoman
