Using traditional folktales as a springboard into the dark pool of her own psyche, Jill Freeman returns with offerings both enchanting and frightening — heart-stopping songs that invite listeners to embark on their own inner journeys. Jill's second CD brings together some of LA's finest musicians to create a unique sonic landscape on this sometimes earthy, sometimes not-of-this-earth collection of 13 songs which portray the artist's journey through an enticing world of shadow, eventually leading to light and home. From the CD: "The dark world of fairy tales may strike some as an odd subject for an entire album of songs. There was a time when I might have agreed. But a few years ago I happened upon several books that explored the Jungian psychology buried within such tales, and I was suddenly entranced–passionately–by the interpretations. Fairy tales - they are like dreams, filled with deep symbolism about the human psyche. They carry the voice of our unconscious, the part of us that silently, continuously sings the song of our humanity, our being-ness. I found I wanted to dive into those dreamy stories, swim deep, and see what I came back with. And so I did. This CD is the expression of what I found there."
