First Seed Ripening

Elixir (Featuring Katie Noonan)

Elixir is a trio of friends and musicians -- multi-platinum selling songstress Katie Noonan, outstanding saxophonist Zac Hurren and the highly-regarded jazz guitarist Stephen Magnusson. Each artist brings to the project an individual style and potency. The result is an improvised folk and jazz-inspired blend of music. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell, Elixir has always been about poetry, set to music. On this album, the works of celebrated poet Thomas Shapcott are Elixir’s key ingredient.

“Our aim,” explains Katie, “is to make gentle, intimate music.”

Elixir will cast a spell on you...
