“A fugue comprised of nine slow hypnotic dirges” is how Acts of Light, Woods’ forthcoming album on Sacred Bones is described by her people. Woods continues her sonic excavations spanning field recordings in Spain, strings in Oslo and the Palestrina choir in the Pro Cathedral. Where The Bough Has Broken, the first single off the album, is cunningly envisioned through RTÉ newsreel archives. “This video muses on the beauty of community and resilience, made to a piece of music that celebrates connection and the specificity and transience of time, space, and human expression. This music video is a visual love letter to the Dublin City I grew up in, to the spirit of familial roots and the extraordinary moments in ordinary life that leave their lasting impression,” says Woods. She will be accompanied on these shows by pioneering and visionary drummer and percussionist Gabriel Ferrandini.
