The Nine Travellers

Gordon Chapman-Fox

GCF - The Nine Travellers

Taking a break from his more urban geographies, Gordon Chapman-Fox steps away from Warrington and Runcorn and delves further back in time and into the earth.

This album comprises four long-form meditations of reverb-drenched ambience. Enormous in scope, the landscapes created here echo around ancient stone circles and dig into the mythology and folklore around them.

“A weight of awe, not easy to be borne,
Fell suddenly upon my spirit, cast
From the dread bosom of the unknown past
When first I saw that family forlorn..
Speak Thou, whose massy strength and stature scorn
The power of years—pre-eminent, and placed
Apart, to overlook the circle vast.
Speak Giant-mother!”
William Wordsworth
