Welcome to the music of Serundal!
Although Serundal’s first album ‘Transitions’ was only
released in 2006, to those who listen to their music everyday it must seem as
if an infinite amount of time has passed. Since that time six full albums and an E.P have been
released and all have been enthusiastically received worldwide. Of course the
research, writing and re-writing to produce this music has been developing and
growing for many years, and like a tender plant each song like a seed has been
lovingly nurtured along the way until it was mature enough to face the all the
elements of the outside world.
Maxie has been a published poet since the age of fifteen,
and Serundal was first born through a combination of her ideas set in poetry
and David’s musical creativity. Together, born of Scottish, English and Welsh
ancestry they have managed to weave together what has been described as ‘a
truly magical mix of Celtic and Anglo-Saxon storytelling traditions with the energy of 21st century
musical arrangements’. Their music has been described as ‘timeless’ ‘cinematic’ and
‘visual’ and since 2007, they have been a featured artist on www.ubl.com and through listeners votes their
songs have scored highly in charts like www.songvault.fm
(where Serundal was the first artist in the folk genre to have six tracks make
it to the top on the songvault directory). ‘Incantation’ (Transitions 2006) and ‘Lady of the Isles’
(Waiting Rooms 2006) are some of the most played tracks in the folk genre on
the web. Moonstone (2006) is also currently an editor’s pick at www.cdbaby.com. Ab Initi (2006) is the first part of the trilogy ‘The Legend
of Serundal’ which is a Celtic fantasy
legend put to music. Currently we are working on our new album which we are hoping to release in time for Christmas 2008. Keep checking this space for more details!
