<"b00005q6zv2999"> About the Artist
US is headed by songwriters Frank Scanzani & Bill McGinness. Both were originally from Beverly, Massachusetts - Frank now resides in Ipswich, Massachusetts and Bill in Fairfax Station, Virginia. They began this project after a reunion of their college rock band, US, and have several other musical projects now in the works. Frank is a Berkley-trained Jazz-oriented guitarist and songwriter. Bill draws on his experience with acoustic guitar & banjo and singing popular folk, country, blues and Irish songs. Their collaboration on these complex and haunting selections demonstrates a dynamic convergence of styles that can evoke contemporary jazz, rock & blues as well as ancient forms and scales that create textures and emotional twists within this interesting musical concept.
<"b00005q6zv4999"> Album Description
We hope this recording and booklet on the Salem Massachusetts Witchcraft Hysteria in 1692 will become more than a visit to a museum, more than a reminder of historic happenings, but rather a portal to an internal adventure, of spirit, mind and body, to discover anew some of the manifestations recognised by witches in the not so distant past in Witches Woods. There is something very difficult to find waiting to be discovered by those thoughtful and sensitive enough to puzzle what is written, pictured and recorded here. Consider this and beware, curiosity, logic and a craving for knowledge must hold you to your path of inquiry. For if you lose your way among the many avenues and directions, you could find yourself back in time in the realm of superstition, without modern science to keep you safe. A map and references are included along with subtile musical hints and directions - the story is woven within the songs and readings. This is intended as a musical odessy and journey of the spirit. It works best if one is able to visit the ancient graves and landmarks in Salem and Beverly Massachusetts; however, the journey can be enjoyed by anyone who seeks truth and has the courage to recognize evil.
