Closer Distance - Purple

<div class='description'><p>When Italian composer Bruno Bavota and Dutch songwriter Chantal Acda first met several years ago, they knew almost instantly that they wanted to make music together. Bavota was already a fan of Acda's dreamy, orchestral folk, and in Bavota's intimate, picturesque piano compositions, Acda saw a potential for collaboration that was begging to be explored. Spawned from the opening piano phrase that became the album's title track, the nine songs that make up A Closer Distance were written and recorded by Bavota and Acda in their respective homes. No stranger to long-distance collaboration - having worked with an array of artists from Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker of Low to guitar legend Bill Frisell - even Acda was surprised by the ease and pace with which A Closer Distance came together: "This all came so weirdly natural. It woke up a part of me that had been asleep for a while." Mostly built around Bavota's solitary piano arrangements and Acda's layered, ethereal vocals, the songs on A Closer Distance reflect the intimacy and tranquility of their conception. It is a magical collection that connects to the listener with the same air of comfort and familiarity that inspired it's creation.</p></div> <br><ul><li>Disc 1, Track: 1 - Connecting Dots<li>Disc 1, Track: 2 - Sirens<li>Disc 1, Track: 3 - Still I<li>Disc 1, Track: 4 - Closeness<li>Disc 1, Track: 5 - Slowmotion<li>Disc 1, Track: 6 - Days Like These<li>Disc 1, Track: 7 - Her Eyes<li>Disc 1, Track:
