Release Notes:
The skips on track 2 are on the CD as well.
The idea that Harland had a future as an artist
never occurred to her when she moved to New York
from her hometown of London, UK.
With her musician boyfriend off on tour, in her
Brooklyn apartment, she found herself alone with a
four-track recorder, a beaten up acoustic guitar
and cockroaches. So she began writing.
Upon hearing her sing, musicians and friends around
her recognized a talent. With this encouragement,
she saved up to fly herself to Australia for a
month to collaborate with Andrew Wright, a
burgeoning producer who was looking for a singer.
Together, they made her first 12 song demo under
the name Phoelar. The results were impressive as
well as surprising for a first effort, and
showcased an extraordinary voice and songwriter in
the making.
Encouraged by the sessions in Australia, she bought
herself a sampler and a keyboard and began
experimenting back in New York City. Never trained
on an instrument, she taught herself composition by
ear and the technical side of recording by studying
manuals.
Her first solo attempts were a collection of
haunting and original songs which were later to be
released as "Sinking Shade." Shortly after these
creations, Harland delivered the album "Salt Box
Lane." Through word of mouth, the songs quickly
found their way around the world.
Her career has been gathering tempo since then. she
has signed to a publishing deal, collaborated as a
highly sought after guest vocalist with seminal
electronic artists Rio Klein, Josh Ryan, Ferry
Corsten, Junkie Xl, Pole Folder and Josh Abraham,
has toured theatres in Canada and America as a lead
vocalist for Delerium, and has played her first
solo live shows in New York.
Harland spends her time between New York, London
and Australia creating music and performing.
