So we beat on Against the current With our backs strong Borne against the flow So we tread on On and on and on and on and on So forth So far gone So we push on Through the canopy With our intentions Light and true So we tread on On and on and on So forth So far gone We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty So we take flight Dip and serve and dive Chase shooting stars Sparks in metal arcs So we launch forth On and on and on and on So we go on How far we've come We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty We drink light We drink light We drink light We are thirsty

about

Vertumnus is an epic four-part exploration of our planet’s seasons. Written over the course of a meditative year spent in tiny shacks along Australia’s coast, an apartment in the inner city of Melbourne, and amongst the Redwood forests of California – Packwood has sculpted emblems of the challenges and relief of each natural quarter. Each season presents it’s own character, and each song within it a unique voice. Bayden’s expressive vocals and guitar pickings are accompanied at times by a full chamber orchestra and choir, and at times ring out solitary and exposed. Rich with love, fear and wonder; Vertumnus is a reflection on our relationship with each other and with our planet.
