Jo Quail releases new song "Macha" and announces double album

featuring Maria Franz on vocals

Award-winning composer and cellist Jo Quail has released a brand new single, "Macha". The new song is taken from a special upcoming release, the Invocation / Supplication double album. On Invocation, a three-song-cycle, you'll be able to hear Maria Franz (Heilung) as a guest vocalist. Supplication features the vocal contribution of Lorenzo Esposito Fornasari. 

Jo Quail comments: "Macha is the first song in a three-song cycle I composed for Maria Franz. From our very first meeting some years back I dreamed to create a musical landscape to present to Maria, and I am blessed by the warmth and generosity with which she greeted this proposal. Macha is a song of empowerment, of ascendency, of awakening; it was a joy to compose this music and a deeply humbling experience to be with Maria as she interpreted my thoughts, her voice in full flight with such radiance and inspiration."

Listen to the song on the digital streaming platforms here or via YouTube.

The Invocation / Supplication double album will be released via By Norse Music on November 3 and on Jo Quail's upcoming European tour. Pre-orders are available in the store HERE and on Bandcamp.
