Come Little Children (Hocus Pocus OST Cover) Halloween Treat!

A special Halloween treat :) This is one of my favourite Halloween songs, "Come Little Children" from Hocus Pocus music score. Original song composed by John Debney, humble tribute video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPaHaiT4moI

Away Reprise (LIVE, unedited)

Live unedited version of "Away" (Reprise). This song is a little reprise of Away (one of the songs included in my first album Ancient Shadows back in 2006 that you can actually find at my channel) but this version had different melody and lyrics and was never included in the albums. It has only been performed live during concerts. This is an acoustic live unedited version I sort of improvised as I usually play this one with hammered dulcimer. I will try to share now on more works in progress and random spontaneous improvisations and live moments from the studio. Hopefully soon also live concerts through youtube :)

Happy Holidays video and song from Priscilla Hernandez

Dear listeners, friends and supporters, :)

Priscilla Hernandez (singer-songwriter/illustrator). I haven´t sent a newsletter in a while but I hope you still want to be updated with our news :)

I wanted to take the chance of this special day to wish you all Merry Xmas or Winter :) Closing of the years are always special, :) time for new resolutions :). I have been quiet for a while, but that didn't mean I was idle :) All the songs featured in my forthcoming album FEAR NO MORE are already recorded and I've been working on the artworks of the album. :) Another "side" project is almost half way done :), so after a quiet  I am getting ready to fight for my dream which is music, thus thanks once more each one of you for wanting to be in touch :). So among my resolutions, painting more, releasing the album, renewing the entire official site, and keep on my way to happiness. Grateful to each one of you who keep encouraging me ahead, humbly, thanks! :)

Somehow during this more introspective phase of my life I've become more and more contact back with Nature, It's been healing in many ways. These fairytale landscapes have inspired tons of new music, looking forward to share, but  I post almost daily the beautiful landscapes we visit at my instagram account.

 

The reason to send out this newsletter is that this month I recorded this song to wish you a MERRY YULETIDE AND HAPPY CLOSING OF THE YEAR. With our best regards from "YIDNETH STUDIO" feel free to comment and share
"With frost I´ll make your crown
With snow I´ll weave your gown
and dressed in sparkling white
you will bring the light
into this winter Night"
