Following on from last month's debut single Song By A Stranger, Divorce's co-vocalist and guitarist Felix Mackenzie-Barrow has returned this week sharing the latest effort under his solo project, Book of Churches. Following suit, The Quiet Was A Heron is another tender offering, stripped back and delivered expertly. Felix comments on the new single: "The Quiet Was A Heron arrived at the end of summer, in 2024. I watched a heron fly at dusk above the noise and chaos of a festival in the Brecon Beacons and wondered how it perceived us from up there. It was a fleeting, almost out-of-body experience. It led me back to a memory of the family dog digging up the bones of a heron buried many years before in a black binbag in my parents’ garden. It is an angry song, angry that we as a species render so many gentle, beautiful, irreplaceable lives so unliveable." Take a listen below.
