Fursaxa is the sounds of Tara Burke. This cryptic word is something which was spelled out by Tara's phone number at some point in time. She is magical and humble. It is rumored that she lives in a stone house on a farm in the country. She uses minimal tools, such as a casio sk-1, dulcimer, shakers and a sampling pedal to build up soaring soundscapes. Her music is holy and mystical. It is the sound of a high priestess enchanting and inducting the audience into a world of mystery. This really could be hidden magic from a culture not yet discovered. Tara has said in a past interview, "I get strong feelings like I've been a part of other cultures in other lifetimes." Monkeyclaus recorded Fursaxa in an old stone cathedral on the grounds of the University of Virginia, this past April when she was on tour with Jack Rose. Listen here and experience a unique recording of this talented artist in her element. Read the interview linked below to feel closer to the source of the music.
