Release Notes:

http://www.westernvinyl.com/voices.htm

Voices and Organs is a musical project which started in the Autumn of 2004 as a
collection of short stories... these stories turned into songs and songs turned
into a record soon to be released on Western Vinyl as Orphanage.  Rooted in the
group's love of fiction, the record deals with childhood/adolescent isolation
through a series of short stories about a young boy and girl in an orphanage.
Whether the orphanage  is a metaphor for childhood or if it is actually the
other way around is up to the listener to decide.

Written in the unstable climate of Sweden, recorded on Japanese machines through
the English language, V & O try to bring about music balanced between warm as
warmth gets and cloudy as a rainy morning on the Swedish westcoast. Right now
the group is learning how to make the best out of their concerts and at the same
time they're busy working with some new material.

The Voices and Organs project is headed by Per Lindmark.  Per and friends craft
sonic textures and dramatic melodies reminiscent of Sigur Ros or Mⁿm, but more
intimate and more focused on songwriting.  Many of the tracks consist of several
distinct parts seamlessly sewn together, as the group very consciously tells
their stories sonically, melodically, and lyrically.  Orphanage is the debut
Voices and Organs release,  and will be available this Winter.
