Who has been painting my roses red?

The Dyr Sister returns as an ensemble outfit featuring nearly 50 strings combined. An incredible string bath indeed. These are the first live demos of the ongoing project 'Fairytales for the Modern Gentleman'

The Dyr Sister's Fairy-tales for the Modern Gentleman is an ever-growing compendium of anti-ballads. An evolution into a small ensemble after a time as a solo entity was inevitable in order to continue transmitting the surreal, subversive and provocative paintings of sound that respond to the vagaries of modern life. 
 
Combining contemporary folk with post-hiphop and electronic music genres the songs are delivered with driving percussive beats via a backdrop of strings including Viola (Sally Currie), Harp (Stephanie Halsey) and Bass Guitar (Sarah Shiels) and layered with haunting and ethereal vocal harmonies. This is a devastatingly beautiful expression of what it means to be alive and kicking and still telling tales in these bleak times.
