The acoustic duo, Wind Weaver, and their album “Wild Threads” is an album that uses the musical talents of the Native American flute, acoustic guitar, and percussion to paint serene pictures in the mind with relaxing and contemplative sounds. In “Fluid Ooze” the melodic flute gently frolics around the steady, yet subdued sounds of a drum creating an atmosphere of serene tranquility. In “Aerial Wandering” a rhythmic and catchy acoustic guitar riff starts the song before an emotive flute comes in to tell a story that will enlighten your senses. “Summer Clouds” is a song in which a sympathetic flute and guitar combine to produce a well balanced song that will take you away to a warm summer day. The music within this album is sweet and tranquil as the Native American flute and acoustic guitar merge to create a feeling of placid relaxation. Whether you appreciate the sounds of these instruments or enjoy calming background music, “Wild Threads” is an album you will thoroughly enjoy.

Influences abound, as they should. Mary Youngblood and Mark Holland and Gary Stroutsos and Jeff Ball have all been infused into this music as well as Celtic and African cross-cultural influences.
If this is what these two can do for a first time out with a modest production, I *really* want to hear what happens next!
