Trance To The Sun’s 1995 Bloom Flowers, Bloom! offers ten ghostly, passionate and evocative songs from the realm of gothic psychedelia. The mesmerizing vocals of Zoë Alexandra Wakefield intertwine with the kaleidoscopic tones of legendary guitarist/soundscaper Ashkelon Sain to create a gorgeous, otherworldly cacophony. Recorded in 1994, and first released in the Spring of 1995 on Tess Records (US) and EFA (Europe), Bloom Flowers, Bloom! is the second album by Trance To The Sun. This remastered release features 4 bonus tracks, including “You So You (Live)” and fan-favorite “Clown Small & Even.”
