Album review: Field Works – ‘Cedars’: Stuart Hyatt fuses cosmic Americana and Arabic sounds; the results are luscious

  • March 1, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
Cedars is quite a record - two records really; the first more orange and various other colours of the sun's framing of the beginning and the ending of the day, alive with a heartfelt yearning and cosmic sonic thrill. The second is far more verdant, deep green, homespun, and focuses in very much in on the wonder of the simple; the moments we all return to, perhaps, at least us rural dwellers. If you're at all conceptually familiar with the work of William Blake, his Songs Of Innocence And Experience, you'll see; the twining and correspondences. Climb into Cedars, join the two worlds for yourself; the album is long on thought and also on beauty.
