Mother Twilight

Returning to this heated Earth on your calendar’s next page are two early classics from Faun Fables: 2001’s Mother Twilight and 2004’s Family Album arrive on vinyl for the first time ever. These two treasures from Dawn McCarthy and Nils Frykdahl join hand-in-hand, in full Family Band fashion.

Mother Twilight, the second Faun Fables album: it has since been noted by Scottish author R.J. Stewart as a work containing true artifacts of the oral underworld tradition. Dawn and Nils made a hand-assembled first pressing and peddled it to nearly every bar and rural hall across North America from 2001-2003; Drag City reissued the CD in 2004, and is proud to place it on vinyl in 2024.
