The Hardy Tree

About the artist

The Hardy Tree is British musician Frances Castle, who previously recorded under the name Transistor Six. The music on her 2010 debut album, 'The Fields Lie Sleeping Underneath', was inspired by Castle's local London neighbourhood. Recorded at home in an attic room over a year, she patched and stitched together an orchestral jigsaw puzzle of sounds that hint at audio memories from lost kids 70 TV programmes, ghost orchestras, cinema organs, folk song, and static and crackle.
