Hilary Woods

• TRANSLUCENT RED VINYL EDITION

Vulnerability, majesty, and candour elicited with drone, double bass, field recordings and sacred choral chant compose its private ritual. Born out of excavations and explorations in feeling, intuition and physicality through sound which culminated in her 2021 EP 'Feral Hymns', 'Acts Of Light' is a disquiet personal offering to wilderness, loss, absence, mystery and love supreme.

Recorded and mixed over a span of two years along the west coast of Ireland and in various other locations, including the Procathedral in Dublin where Woods recorded the choristers of the Palestrina Choir and Galway where she recorded the voices of Galway City Chamber Choir, string samples were recorded in Oslo, whilst field recordings were recorded nomadically throughout her time spent travelling in Spain.
