John / Eivor Lunn Last Kingdom Original Soundtrack

The Last Kingdom is a British historical fiction TV series based on novels called The Saxon Stories by author Bernard Cornwell (originally aired on BBC 2 & BBC America). John Lunn's music possesses a unique voice that spans a wide spectrum of musical styles. Classically trained, yet contemporary in attitude, he combines a highly intelligent and sensitive approach with a sound that always hits at the emotional heart of a piece. He is probably best known for scoring the hugely successful drama Downton Abbey, for which he has received two Primetime Emmy Awards, as well as a BAFTA nomination. Eivor often envisions the dramatic landscape of her Nordic homeland, a remote archipelago known as the Faroe Islands. 'It can be very harsh and very gentle at the same time, and when I sing, I see that wildness and softness blended together'. Now based in Copenhagen, Eivor brings that stark contrast to a darkly textured, yet brightly melodic sound centred on her captivating vocals. While her origins lie in Faroese folk singing, Eivor's most recent output reveals her fascination with the infinite possibilities of electronic music. Along with earning comparisons to Kate Bush in the pages of MOJO, Eivor's otherworldly ingenuity has led to her role in co-composing the soundtrack to the BBC/Netflix flagship series The Last Kingdom. The Last Kingdom is available as a limited edition of 500 numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl and contains an insert. Official website: http://www.
