about

Title track from the album of the same name. Recorded in 2010

lyrics

It’s getting late
The purple flowers are falling
On their knees
The sun is wasted
On the mountains
Precious time slides down the
Rivers, and the bees
Drunk with hazy fervour
Are returning
Among sparks of yellow
Pollen
That float beneath the trees

And everywhere the sun is going down
And everywhere what’s gone round
Is now coming round

Let this day have an end

about

Illiteratty Vancouver, British Columbia

We play metafolk… meaning, original swing, European cabaret, celtic, rockabilly, a cappella, folk, world, pop, with sharp lyrics and up to five-part vocals.

Our instrumentation is for three to six musicians, and our full complement includes guitar, mandolin, violin, keys/accordion, upright bass and small percussion. Our music is funny, angry, idiosyncratic, intelligent, and extremely varied.
