 "Begin with the
Celtic harp, which Grean plays with easy
passion. Add her voice, pure and sweet, which takes the listener into
the dreamtime.
Mix in award-winning Charlie Bisharat's violin, Kevin DiSimone's piano
and synthesizer, and Randy Tico's bass and percussion.
Finally, stir in Native American flute, cello, additional percussion,
vocals, and electric guitar, and we have a recipe for something new and
wonderful in the world.
It has been called Celtic fusion or world harp but, labels aside, Hand
Woven is deliciously fresh music served up with delightfully infectious
joy. One of the best albums of 1997, and a must have." -New Age Retailer
Instrumentation
includes combinations of Celtic harp, wordless vocals, Native American
flute, violin, cello, piano, bass, electric guitar, recorders,
synthesizer, mountain dulcimer, harmonica, and ethnic percussion
including bodhran, djembe, tabla.

Lorin Grean's passion is to create music in layers just as an artist
layers paint to create a composition. “Recording
layers, adding to it to see where the arrangements will
grow, that’s the part of the whole creative process that I love,” Lorin
said. “I was missing that, so I decided to come back to record
because it’s personal therapy for me.”
Though Lorin
had just spent countless hours in the studio, she lit
up
with fresh energy as she spoke about her music.
“Some people
spend their money on diamonds and possessions. I don’t
need a Dior gown. For me I’d rather have the experience of recording,
of being in that creative space. It makes my heart sing.”
Lorin likes
to mix things up. The results are surprising and
enticing.
Who would have thought...
