Beck Siàn

In the Winter Dark

"... deliciously melancholy"

"Bloody weird... I love it!"

"... incomparably expressive and brave"

"Beck Siàn is the Mistress of kooky, atmospheric alternative/folk music and once again she takes us on a journey with her soundscapes - this time through the scenes of a haunted winter."

We proudly present the new theatrical concept album from

Ghost-Folk artist Beck Siàn...

'In the Winter Dark'

Featuring 12 ghostly, gothic-folk songs in celebration of the cold and icy months of the year, this is Beck Siàn's most atmospheric work yet. A collection of icy ghost stories - old and new - and a celebration of the frosty, snowy landscapes of Winter. A little bit gothic, a little bit folky, a little bit weird - but you would expect that from Beck by now!

'By These Words, We Are Haunted... Vol. I.'

An intimate, emotive performance of ten, haunting works of spectral restlessness by famous poets, including Charlotte Brontë, Thomas Hardy, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Henry Lawson and more...

Beck says, “This release is a little different to any of our past ones as it collates and performs some of Beck’s favourite, spooky poems; creating a hauntingly atmospheric vibe through both spoken word and song performances.

‘By These Words, We Are Haunted...’ - Vol. 1, features both of us performing ten ghostly pieces of poetry and prose in differing styles. Jonathan created wonderfully atmospheric soundscapes on keyboards for each piece. We then had a marvellous time stalking around the house, creating and recording ghostly sound effects!

We are really thrilled with the end result, and it’s been so much fun to make. In fact, we’ve enjoyed this process so much, that we’ve decided to do it again! Please stay tuned for further volumes in the future!

This is a performance to be listened to by the fireside, or to be relished by candlelight, with your curtains tightly drawn against ghoulies and ghosties and long-legged beasties, and things that go bump in the night.”

Performed by Beck Siàn & Jonathan Kershaw; musical soundscapes by Jonathan Kershaw; editing, mixing and mastering by Jonathan Kershaw
