Fernwood, an all-acoustic instrumental group announces the release
of their second album titled "Sangita". Following on the heels of their widely heralded debut release "Almeria', this 12-track offering greatly expands upon their previous work. Utilizing an expanded palette of world instruments, Gayle Ellett (Djam Karel) and Todd Montgomery create music that is both familiar and exotic, lush and melodic, warm and inspirational. They create contemporary acoustic music that is beautiful and elegant, with a strong cinematic and pan-cultural feel. By playing traditional World instruments in new and interesting ways, they have created a new hybrid style that is uniquely their own.
GUITAR PLAYER Magazine described their music as "Wonderfully melodic, expertly
layered, masterfully interwoven, luscious yet rootsy."
Montgomery and Ellen achieve a rich and inviting sound on "Sangita" with the use of a wide variety of traditional wooden folk instrument s such as: Irish and Greek bouzouki, sitar, dilruba, ruan, oud, gobijen, jal tarang, dotara, tenor banjo, harmonium, acoustic guitar, violin, upright bass, and other instruments. Contemporary Americana and Old World styles are merged and blended together into something new and beautiful. The arrangements and orchestration are sophisticated and dynamic. Produced with what can only be described as a truly golden tone, "Sangita" is a marvelously cohesive offering.
And their debut release "Almeria" was chosen as "#4 ALBUM OF THE YEAR" at nationally syndicated Echoes Radio.
