"Violet Hymns" is an intimate journey that is intended to feel like living within the spaces where these songs were recorded. It is a both a reflection on, and letting go of, moments that no longer exist.

The album not only draws from decades of recordings that reside in Northern Valentine's massive archive, but also features some new recordings from 2024-2025.

The sonic landscape is enhanced by contributions from Jay Baron (Cloudminder), on "Pilgrimage" and "Hushed Waves" - and Luke Primak (Appalachian Translator) on "Wandering".

As always - recommended for listening with your favorite headphones.
