Karen Kahan has been writing and performing original works including Viking-Age Norse-styled music and poetry as Wyndreth

These songs are dark, moving, full of beautiful voices and makes me think. That is why I love this album despite the fact it wouldn't normally be "my cup of tea". Great job ladies!
