Avalon Rising CD coverAVALON RISING
Experience the magic
of the first Avalon Rising CD!! Avalon Rising is an enchanting, electro-acoustic blend of Medieval, Celtic, and original music. The shimmering interplay of guitar, Celtic harp, and flute accompanies the soaring vocals of lead vocalists Margaret Davis and Kristoph Klover. Ranging from driving Irish and Middle Eastern worldbeat sounds to lyrical Celtic harp-based ballads, Avalon Rising weaves a magical tapestry of sound in the same vein as Loreena McKennitt, Renaissance, and Dead Can Dance. Powerful and entrancing, their richly textured sound weaves together original music with the magical echoes of Medieval, Celtic, and Middle Eastern music to create a glowing new musical vision."Wets the mind like Irish mist ... The musical teamwork is superb." --John Wheeler, Harpbeat
