SALINE GRACE – “The Tree of Knowledge”

Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.

Poetic melancholy
SALINE GRACE
“The Tree of Knowledge”‘
Album (Deeper Water Records)

Saline Grace conveys poetic melancholy on “The Tree of Knowledge”. As a multi-instrumentalist, mastermind Ricardo Hoffmann creates harmonious soundscapes using a wide variety of instruments. In addition to piano, organ and strings, a singing saw can also be heard. Saline Grace thoughtfully addresses changes – be they socio-political or personal – and how to deal with them. The vocals sometimes take on spoken word characteristics, which – similar to Nick Cave – emphasizes the dramatic effect. Certainly nothing light for in between, but a work that gets under your skin.
