Our second track, recorded and mixed by our dear friend Eric Wing at McNally Smith College of Music. This song tells the tale of a simple, hardworking, god-fearing farmer who sees a perfect solar eclipse.

lyrics

Across the valley
where the sun shines down
And through the field,
the Shepherd frowns

Ancient walls of stone
of mysteries unknown
a Shadow falls down
Over idols of bone

A Solar Anomaly

This sacred ground of old
Where the sun shines bold
Where dew glistens on
Leaves of red and gold

The zenith crowns
Above the trees
The air gives way
To a winter breeze

A Solar Anomaly

When day turns to night
Within the hour of noon
A sign brought to light
That winter will come soon

Silver shards of moonlight
Trickle from the sky
Reflect upon still water
An image of the night

A Solar Anomaly
