Whispers from the North, South and East.”

Currently working on a new forthcoming album, 12 years after their latest opus ‘Psychostasia’ (released back in 2013), the Greek ethereal world music ensemble Daemonia Nymphe took a short break from the studio and the result of that is this recently released experimental project ‘Witches' Lullaby: Whispers from the North, South and East’.

Formed in 1994, Spyros Giasafakis and Pantelis Giasafakis established this musical entity (later joined by Evi Stergiou in 1998), using authentic Greek instruments to mesmerize you with neoclassical soundscapes and celestial voices. The divine Power, the Divinity, an inferior female supernatural being in charge of the forces of nature: Daemonia Nymphe.

‘Witches' Lullaby: Whispers from the North, South and East’ follows the special EP released in 2021. A whole project based on the lullaby with the same title which was composed for the play based on William Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Spyros: “The original piece, ‘Witches’ Lullaby'’ for the play Macbeth, received positive reactions from the audience from around the world. One of the comments came from Ukraine; a mother told us that she has been listening to the lullaby every day with her 3-month-old son! For other people it is an emotional experience, and some others find calmness or sleep while listening to it. These are unexpected reactions from people around the world who inspire us to work on projects that we never really intended to. Since then we have released various works for theatre or different side-projects (music for theatrical plays including 'Macbeth', improvisations with ancient Greek instruments, lullabies etc) but not a Daemonia Nymphe full length album with our main work, so the forthcoming Daemonia Nymphe release is of great importance.”

Recorded in London, Amman, Munich, Brighton and Thessaloniki, with vocal improvisations by Victoria Couper, Rey Yusuf, Joran Elane, Enas Al-Said & India Blue, and additional vocals by Louisa-John Krol, Iphigenia Giasafaki and Stevie Toddler, get ready to let these four melodious lullabies take you to the 11th century, to lose yourself in a world where witches whisper seductive poems of something magical yet to come.
