Search - Carla Werner :: My Lover's Ghost

'My Lover's Ghost' is comprised of six songs. Songs which were written around the same time as I was writing for a full-length album I want to release next year (2010). I call them the 'salvaged deluge' that didn't make the cut because of their 'folkier' origins, and so decided to turn them into an EP because I couldn't bring myself not to do anything with them. It started in my bedroom, then moved into my flatmates wardrobe, then into my own, then onto 'Cat Farm Studio' owned by Josh Grange, who helped build upon the raw recordings I had, turning the EP into something really beautiful. His choice of instruments for each song were varied and thoughtful, pedal steel guitar in the title track, piano accordion on 'Something', banjo on 'Free' and so on. Mixed & mastered by Aussie engineers Jared Scott & Mitch Kenny in LA and John Ruberto in Melbourne, the EP marks the second independent release on my own label, OfOneMusic and heralds a turning point in the frequency of my releases in the future. The artwork, graphic design and website are all designed by me and I do this not because I'm a control freak, but because I taught myself how to, and I know how I want things to look, so in the truest sense, I really am an independent artist, and your contribution helps grow my environment, making it possible to further create and inspire creativity in others.6 acoustic songs recorded live in a variety of wardrobes and living rooms, beautified by multi-instrumentalist, Joshua Grange. The result is a gorgeous array of songwriting & thoughtful instrumentation, allowing the songs to remain true to their origins.
