| The Family Elan is the intuitive, devotional project of Glasgow's free wheeling acid folk dervish Chris Hladowski (Nalle, The One Ensemble, Scatter) built around his gently lilting vocal offerings & the absorbing droning modal sounds of his long-necked lute. Stare of Dawn is one of those special little records - searchingly beautiful, seemingly effortless, deeply enchanting.
Elan draws on a vast array of folk musical traditions from the Greek Rebetes of the 1920s, the tanbur playing of the Kurdish Sufi mystic Ostad Elahi and Âshyq songs of the Azerbaijani sâz master Edalat Nasibov to revivalists offerings from Anne Briggs's bouzouki inventions, early Incredible String Band & Hungarian revivalists Muzsikás |
