Wandering Stars' new Album, Somnambule

Wandering Stars has created a truly macabre concept album. A story exploring love, death, hope and family. The music combines elements of industrial, trip-hop and dark electronica seamlessly. Derek Christopher's voice and delivery is understatred and almost menacing at times while Lydia Brownfield provides a soaring range of emotion. Gregory Stokes' guitar work travels from sparse and poignant to a monolithic wall of sound. The photographic art by Heather Ross ties listeners to the story by introducing ghostly Victorian visuals and makes Somnambulae a truly immersive experience. Highlights are the opening track, Anamnesis as well as Mytteri, Gamelli and Staar Na Die See. Though the album is best heard as a complete work.

More About Lydia

Singer/songwriter, Lydia Brownfield, spent many years honing her craft in Atlanta, opening for artists such as Loudon Wainwright III, Peter Case, Shawn Mullins and Indigo Girls, as well as playing shows with her band in the area’s top clubs.    

Before settling in Columbus, Lydia became a regular performer in the coffee houses of Greenwich Village, and began a recording career that has continued to date.    

Her songs are pulled from experiences of growing up in Columbus, Ohio, her studies at the local fine arts college, a decade of living and performing in Atlanta, touring the south, and then moving to New York City - not least having gone through two difficult divorces and now being a mom. All of which brings a dramatic - often comedic - and entertaining live show.  

Alongside Lydia, you'll find her longtime partner, Jeff Dalrymple. His finger-picking guitar playing style is the ultimate compliment to Brownfield's pure and captivating voice. Together as an acoustic duo, they showcase super tight vocal harmonies while the guitars weave an intricate web of songs that are thoughtfully crafted and beautifully executed.   

Look for live performances in and around Ohio, Atlanta and New York with Dalrymple and with her full band, The Jagged Hearts.

“Imagine a grown-up Exene Cervenka meeting an edgier and less ambiguous Stevie Nicks, with some McCartney melodicism and Pete Townshend angst thrown in, and you’ve got Lydia Brownfield.”
