Sea Glass - by Jennifer Crook. "I'd wander the shoreline, I'd sift through the sand..."
Beautiful atmospheric new single from UK folk songwriter Jennifer Crook evoking the fragility of our natural environment and of human life. Even within the aching sadness of grief and goodbyes we can see glimmers of hope and beauty...
Based on a true story, Jennifer’s folk influences wash up on the shores of a modern dilemma: the age-old tradition of sending a message in a bottle out to sea alongside our current concerns about ocean pollution. The hope is that we can begin to turn back the tide on climate change, and that heartache and loss can be transformed in time into something beautiful: like sea glass.
