The album was recorded live at the DK Concert Hall in Copenhagen, and represents Antony’s continued meditation on light, nature & femininity.

Addressing the affects of patriarchy on the global ecology, Antony explores the possibility of shifting towards feminine systems of governance in a gesture to restore our world.
