Flood debut album to air on radio

2009-05-20

Unicorn Digital and La Villa Strangiato are proud to present the world premiere of FLOOD’s debut album Tales from the Four Seasons.

Tales From The Four Seasons is the chill out album of the year. It comes right from the heart of the English countryside. The album follows a year in the life of the woodland. Four tracks take you through each season from the early morning mists of Spring, the strawberries and ice cream of Summer through to the cider apples and golden leaves of Autumn and finally the snow covered landscape of Winter. The stories are told through acoustic guitar against a backdrop of chamber orchestra and piano

FLOOD’s debut album ‘Tales From The Four Seasons’ is an instrumental album. It began life as a short piece entitled Summer written whilst on holiday in Dorset five years ago and became a four suites concept album

Although typically drawn to more heavy arrangements in terms of the use of synthesisers, bass pedals and electric guitars, Flood felt it was important to keep the orchestration and choice of instruments the same as had been used on Summer. The original orchestration has been augmented by the use of piano, upright bass clarinet and drums. Each season is made up of individual movements linked together using short linking passages. The music was inspired by the sights and sounds of the English countryside.

FLOOD’s Tales from the Four Seasons world premiere this Thursday night, May 21st 8pm on La Villa Strangiato CHUO 89.1 FM www.chuo.fm
