Description/Reviews:
“Stellar Season” is a very evocative and melodic album, well produced and played with a strong opening track introduced by a kind of wind chime soft percussion, wistful flute and gentle acoustic guitar before entering an Incredible String Band influenced vocal section (a connection also most evident on ‘In Love with the Sun’ and ‘Call for the Equinox’ with its haunting repetitive chant). The music has an effortless fluidity and a multiplicity of instrumental variation ... One cannot also help but recall to mind Jade Warrior in places. A special call out to Luke Foster’s impactful drumming which adds much to a magical formula that will transport the listener not only back to the intoxicating blends of prog, psych and acid folk of the past, but also into the future on its imaginary journey to another world.
