Spell Songs offers a musical voice to best-selling nature writer Robert Macfarlane and artist Jackie Morris ‘The Lost Words’ and ‘The Lost Spells’ books with gorgeous multi-cultural harmonies that range from Scottish Gaelic to West African (Senegal) Mandinka, all with a "serendipitous blend of guitar, harp, woodwind, kora and more.”

The music inspires listeners to celebrate nature with songs about oak trees, swallows and daisies, while delivering a call to action for nature conservation by touching on topics like climate change, abuse of natural resources, animal extinction and more. Through a powerful combination of poetry, art and music, 'Let The Light In’ re-connects listeners with Mother Nature.
