Born on the tiny island of Guernsey to a Portuguese family, Gomes channels influences from both sides of her ethnicity, blending essence of the traditional, emotional and 'larger than life' Fado folk music with British progressive modern inspiration. Her acclaimed debut album Diamonds&Demons was released in October 2016 and received lots of media attention and radio support in Europe and the UK. She played in 25 countries in the last 2 years includes major festivals in Europe

And now she has the perfect "thank you" to those who have supported her on her journey: an album revealing an authentic and heartfelt search for light, depth, hope and truth; an artistic quest for love and trust. A series of intricately detailed, hauntingly atmospheric and lushly textured Avant-ballads. Here is a musician whose work obliquely references her travails and nods to BjÖrk and Kate Bush but is uniquely her own, with Portuguese inflections and intimations of hope and dread.

Mirka Kroner & Ondrej Križan create from the heart and invite you to connect with yours. Their work touches on the importance of deepening the relationship with each other, between each other and with everyone around you. The music they offer to the world regenerates and invites you to surrender to what it wants to be In their speech, they form and oasis of peace around them. Mirka paints pictures of the depths of the lived, her words are a light and unforced breeze to think about. Ondrej brings sensitive dynamics to the space with his detailed playing of djembe and percussion. Voice, tones, beat and poetry become the tellers of our common story.
