The music is future-past; the songs sound like ancient transcriptions recovered from a bog, but you've never heard anything like them before. Having studied Eastern and Western mythology, the Tarot, runes, astrology, and symbolism; Lisa's lyrical inspiration runs the gamut from a Zen koan or the Mabinogion to a Russian submarine disaster or Julia Butterfly's yearlong tree-sit to save a redwood. Each song is assigned an explanatory I Ching hexagram including the title Tree Over Sea which means truth. The only way to imagine these kaleidoscopic tunes is to become an initiate.Thu, 28 Aug 2008 19:18:16 -0500http://lisahake.calabashmusic.com/#album_90861
