Release Notes:

 A good song is a secret, something that distresses and delights in equal
measure. Either way-"Playground" is SotVR's most accessible effort to date. 14
songs, open and complexly multi-layered at the same time; different takes on
this singular moment of clarity that ultimately remains an illusion; phrased in
a language that excises the extraneous and goes for the heart.
The instrumentation is sparing: piano, electric guitar, minimalist percussion
plus violin & accordion punctuation that engender intimate tonal imagery.
Several cuts were recorded live at Cafe l'angolo in Graz, Austria; the rest in
the studio. "Playground" stakes all it's got on fervent, heartfelt
interpretation and the magic of the musicians' spontaneous collaboration. The
result is an album you can get lost in if you want to, and one in which you can
rediscover something if that's what you need.
