Meadowlark 03:20
MEADOWLARK Bring on the storm, Summer Bring on the storm First kiss of rain While the day is still warm Scent of the desert Arrives on the breeze Smelling of Earth And of Juniper trees Long days over the meadows Long days over the meadows So sing, Meadowlark sing So sing, Meadowlark sing Splashes of colour Where wildflowers bloom Zinnia golden And chicory blue Midsummer nights That are over so soon Morning that stretches to Late afternoon Long days over the meadows Long days over the meadows So sing, Meadowlark sing So sing, Meadowlark sing

about

Visionary Songstress Wendy Rule's latest album is a gorgeous collection of folk-driven songs that celebrate the Nature and Magic of Meadowlark, her New Mexico home.

The songs are brought to life with the help of Wendy's son Reuben Bloxham (of renowned Melbourne band RVG) and her friends Carisa and Andrew (of L.A based Darkwave band Night Tongue), creating lush arrangements that enhance Wendy's uniquely beautiful vocals and tender songwriting.

From Wendy:
"Connection with Nature is at the core of my spiritual practice, and, after the epic mythic journey of my last double-album, Persephone, I felt that I needed to emerge from the Underworld, come up for air, and embrace all the powerful Magic of my immediate environment. Most of the songs on Meadowlark began when I was on one of my daily hikes in the nearby wilderness, or when I was sitting on my porch with my guitar and watching the sky. It's essentially a set of folk songs that explore my emotional, creative, and spiritual connection with Nature."
