When in the hands of those alive with love and purpose, music can go beyond an auditory experience. It can become a means of transformation, an alchemy in which the stuff of everyday life is made eternal. Like this EP titled “REST”. It began with Emily Wilder’s delicate, lovely indie-folk songs, marked by her endearing warble and finger picked acoustic guitar. She reached out to other musicians to join her, and found a group of individuals who, like she, felt a strong desire to make music that moves.
These are photos from concerts where Great Wilderness played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
