Willowfair: The Lie Within
Today is the official release of willowfair's debut, The Lie Within. This one has a special place in my heart -- it was recorded and mixed
here over a period of more than a year, and I had the privilege of writing
string arrangements for four of the ten tracks.
If you caught one of the quiet little Christmas shows we've done here at the Backthird for the past few years, you're well acquainted with Ryan and Mandy Bibza's music. It's brooding and fragile, dark and hopeful at the same time. I was playing monthly coffeeshop gigs with willowfair when most of these songs were written, and I've gotten to see them blossom underneath my nose. They're beautiful, and I'm proud a part of their development has happened here.
