Album Notes

Endless Space Unfurled is a five-song EP consisting of music put to the words of various poems by American lyrical poet Sara Teasdale (1884-1933). Teasdale's ruminations on love, life, death and the unhappiness she felt in her marriage find sympathetic and complementary musical settings in Ask For Joy's songs. The tracks range from the poppy, densely layered guitar fuzz of 'To-night' to 'Peace', whose gentle two- and three-part harmonies float underneath undulating waltz time guitars and give voice to the tranquility Teasdale identifies in love through the use of water imagery.
