‘Sycamore Gap’ released September 20th

September 20th, 2024

Kathryn recalls: “It all started nearly a year ago when I woke up to an avalanche of messages. The news of the Sycamore Gap tree being cut down had spread like wildfire, and everyone was in shock. People started asking me if I was going to write a tune for the tree, and I realised that this was something I could do to honour its memory.”

Initially, Kathryn contemplated writing a more uplifting piece, reflecting the regenerative nature of sycamore seedlings that often sprout everywhere. However, as she delved deeper into the creative process, it became clear that a lament was the most fitting tribute. “The lament was the piece that wanted to be written.”

Available on streaming platforms and from Kathryn’s Bandcamp shop.
