"Behind The Veil" is an invitation to explore the depths of the soul, reminding us that love and transformation are universal experiences that bind us all together.
“A calling home to our selves and each other, each song has its own unique quality both lyrically and melodically that reverberates through the body and touches the soul with its powerful evocations of deep truth, strong female vocals and emotive and compelling instrumentals, inspiring and embracing the listener into their own depth of being.” – Alice/ The Butterfly Wheel
