More Info
New Age Voice writes about Clarelynn Rose's CD The Redwood Sidthe, "You can tell by titles like "Across the Pond", "Green Heron," and "Redwood Dawn" that the simple, enchanting melodies Rose picks on her acoustic guitar are mostly inspired by nature. As a professional forester, she spends a lot of time absorbing the sounds of the redwood forests and the creatures who live there. Each of her movements is clear and deliberate, with an overall tendency to the quieter, subtler sounds. Her touch is personal with gentle passages that can be best appreciated by close listening or at least minimal distractions. You can also garner clues to her softer spiritual influeces by her dedication of one track to Buddha and the title cut to the sidthe (Gaelic for fairies). Her sensitive touch on the strings is probably due to her early training on viola and harp, and no doubt was encouraged by her studies with Alex de Grassi and John Renbourn. Rose's style is reflective and nourishing in the same way that a walk in the woods encourages these tranquil qualities." Instrumental Guitar, total running time, 36:13

'Rare Earth'
Review Featured In The Aquarian Weekly- The Grind Zone, November 24, 1999
his record is not metal, however it has much to offer, as the attitude and performance is very reminiscent of a rock record. David Penna, drummer of now-defunct metal outfit Planet Hate provided the percussion for this great disc. This is 12 tracks of alternate tunings, great production, and solid delivery. Standouts are "Spiral Universe", "Architecture" and "India". It`s a record of mostly solo acoustic guitar and percussion. However, you never miss the other instruments as you`re taken in by the music.
