Artist Info: Arcantus

Arcantus fuses ancient sounds with contemporary beats and styles, combining Marilyn Sherwood’s intricate vocal harmonies with mediaeval instruments, like the hurdy-gurdy, pipes and cittern and vibrant elements from global musical traditions.

African and Asian drums provide a rhythmic pulse, often layered with modern electronics and beats, to create a genre-defying soundscape. https://arcantus.bandcamp.com/ [read more...]
