Wren Kitz - Live in Burlington (11Jan2021)

from No Lockdown Transonic Sessions - Winter 2020​-​21 by Transonic

/

about

'Vast Amiss' is a song that came on a late autumn day after the brief heart opening of a dear friend who had been unable to see his small children due to the closed US/Canada border during the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Like a fire burning in the heart while going about the days vibrating repetitions.
Toward the end of this Transonic live session the song 'Vast Amiss' can be heard.

----------

Wren Kitz (USA) is a song writer and field recordist based in Burlington, VT. His unique and personal style of music has been informed by blending traditional guitar-and-voice songwriting with field recording and tape collage experimentation.
In an attempt to develop a ghostly and contemplative form of musical expression,
Wren has begun to ponder ways to break down walls between genre categorizations.

lyrics

Quiet hour at the Shrinery, a finger lifts to lip
Evil eyes looking to leave
Protection in question
A thurible swings a smokey ring and finger lifts to lip
What's it like to sleepily decree the hands their passion?
What's it like so violently decree the hands their ration

It's all quietly passing by helplessly denied

Church yard trees sing creakily
Shadows cast on stone
Memories are willed to leave as the boundary line divides
What's it like so constantly to feel a vast amiss
the waking sea shines silvery and feels a vast amiss

It's all quietly passing by helplessly denied

Passing feeling swallowed deeply
buried in the pits with steeping thoughts
The fire gently breathing
growing larger comes the reeling
Covered up in days vibrating
Unearthing in night's staccato silence
Tearing, shredding, ripping, roaring
Longing for the holy holding "

A long form improvisation precedes and follows the song form
which features field recordings from summer and autumn,
guitar feedback, kalimba, 12 string guitar, a miniature guitar for children,
and a song that suddenly came from it about being fettered and waiting in line.
