It has all the elements of her darkly-huen signature sound; melodies which sound ancient yet at once contemporary, a rich fddle sound equally at home with an achingly poignant air or sprightly dance tune, and a dialogue with her fellow musicians that refects her open-hearted approach to collaboration. It also marks 15 years since her frst recording 'When Leaves Fall'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing on from raw simplicity of the 2020 release 'Landskein', this album features regular musical associates Rachel Newton (Spell Songs, Heal \u0026amp; Harrow), Mairearad Green (The Poozies, Mairearad and Anna) and Anna Massie (Blazin' Fiddles) along with new musical friends Alice Allen, James Lindsay and Jennifer \u003cbr\u003eAustin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Haar or sea mist\/fog is synonymous with our eastern coasts. It creeps onto the coastline and its communities, and brings with it an unsettled atmosphere, with no sense of horizon. Everything is void of colour and light. This music was written during a year of huge personal loss, when it often felt like the haar had engulfed me and those closest to me. Working on this album has been a solace, and at the heart of it is a strong pull towards the coast and both its fragility and strength. Haar - to me - is a reminder that after the mist, always comes light. \"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Haar \/ Culbin \/ The Lost Bell \/ Women of the Shore \/ N\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAKE BELIEVE RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42505494888604,"sku":"MBR11CD","price":10.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/1_66e6ba47-b693-43e3-891e-25740d78d24f.jpg?v=1685388021","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/lauren-maccoll-haar-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
