are
very proud to present the first solo
album Playgrounds Lost from Frequency Drift electric harpist and
songwriter Nerissa Schwarz.
Following
a collaboration for her 2009 debut album
under the moniker of Coronal Rain, Nerissa
was invited to join the internationally acclaimed progressive rock band Frequency Drift as guest composer and
musician for their 2011 release “Ghosts...”.
She soon became a band member and started contributing her own songs and
unusual electric harp arrangements, which have become a trademark of Frequency
Drift. So far, Nerissa has recorded five albums with the band and performed
live in Germany, the UK (at the Summer's End Festival), the Netherlands and
Italy.
In
2014 she began working on solo pieces and totally immersed herself in writing,
experimenting, arranging, recording and producing the music. The result is her
first solo album, Performed entirely on electric harp and mellotron, the album
is a haunting exploration of the beauty, fragility and traumas of childhood. As
it shifts between wistful pastoral moments and dark, uncanny textures, the
music progresses from folk-like melodies to noise, from ambient soundscapes to
intricate, impressionistic compositions.
The
unconventional sound design and cinematic atmospheres of Playgrounds Lost make for an immersive listening experience.
Imagine a stripped-down take on the music of early White Willow and classic Anglagard
- with the same frosty, Scandinavian-style beauty.
NERISSA IS available for
features and interviews. Reviewers and
