Shards and Isolation Choir unveil ‘Inside I’ll Sing’
Featuring an all-star line-up including Alt-J’s Joe Newman, Douglas Dare, Anna Meredith and more.
Lead by Kieran Brunt, London’s experimental vocal-ensemble Shards have shared stunning new song ‘Inside I’ll Sing’.
Recruiting musicians to collaborate remotely as part of their Isolation Choir, the gorgeous new track includes features from Alt-J’s Joe Newman, Mercury Rev’s Jonathan Donahue, Douglas Dare, Anna Meredith and New York-based composer Nico Muhly.
“I reached out to musician friends in the UK and abroad to see if they would lend their voices to an ‘Isolation Choir’, and was overwhelmed by the positivity and enthusiasm that everyone responded with,” Kieran explains. “Like me, many needed a distraction from current events and valued just being given a simple task to do. I recorded a demo of the song and sent out instructions on how to record at home with whatever means were available.”
All proceeds from the recording will be donated to Help Musicians, and you can donate here.
