Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor have long occupied a singular space in indie folk, their hushed harmonies and emotional candor influencing a generation of artists who came up in the early 2000s Saddle Creek scene. The seven-year wait between records only sharpens the impact here, arriving at a moment when listeners are hungry for music that sits with grief, longing, and quiet resilience rather than rushing past it. It's been nearly seven years since Azure Ray duo Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor released their critically acclaimed and most recent album Hold On Love. With 3 prior full-lengths and an EP, the duo drew fans from around the globe with their transcendent songwriting and stunning vocals, and Drawing Down the Moon is an even more impressive and beguiling delight. Azure Ray are famed for their bittersweet melancholy and Drawing Down is a perfect ode to their harmonious musical gifts. Tracklist 1. Wake Up, Sleepyhead 2. Don't Leave My Mind 3. In The Fog 4.
