‘Mankind walks upon the earth — her voice can sing with passion, and the ancient verse recite’
A musical adventure — when a songwriter friend asked me to write and perform on her planned new album — that turned into a rich and deep creative experience.
Mankind Walks was first performed at the Monmouth Festival on 29 July 2008. A further instrumental track, Cry, was released on 27 July 2009. All tracks are available to listen to on Facebook and MySpace.
