Faith & the Muse
Dark Wave / Undefined
Combining the surreal mixture of lyrical emotion with sonic texture and aesthetic color, amidst a diverse musical background ranging from Dark Alternative and Electronic with elements of Celtic, World music and Neo-Classical, Faith And The Muse provide one of the rarest experiences in art, theater and music.
As artists and songwriters, William Faith and Monica Richards have created their own unique universe by allowing no boundaries to the music they create, reaching across historical genre and cultural style: a lyrical, rhythmic connection to the sublime and the beautiful. From personal acoustic pieces and traditional/tribal folk melodies to grand orchestral production and dark rock epics, this diverse combination of simplicity and complexity places Faith And The Muse in their own musical category. Monica Richards' distinctive, charismatic voice possesses the emotion of a Greek Chorus, and along with Faith's immeasurable capacity for instrumentation, the duo reveals an unusual poetic vision of the world around us, fluent in all musical languages, with an eclectic sense of sonic experimentation that can only be defined as Faith And The Muse. Each album they have released, with stunning visual concepts created by Richards, has been hailed as a singular piece of lyrical and musical history, taking the listener on a journey through the ages with the underlying message that something amazing transcends the mundane.
Faith And The Muse's purpose is clear. While sequestering us inside the mythical and mystical environment of their Otherworldy music, they bring to light the real elements that are true within all of us: a quiet and perfect human connection that has guided our hearts throughout history, yet in this world, is commonly lost.
