Biography
Resurrection Fern refers to at least two different musical acts:
1) a group that was formed in May 2008 by Bean Dolan, it was a project to see where a non-percussive instrumentation with no 'electrickery' involved might have taken his songs, as seen on their first album, 'Earth Rising'. The new album, 'Transcend Mortality', released on the 18th June 2010(Digi Release 1st June 2010) has moved on from this to include both elements in the songs. The new songs have strayed from the sound of the debut album by taking in a lot broader range of sounds, and percussive elements, but the familiar alternative acoustic style of Resurrection Fern is still scattered throughout. They have been branded with several genres including alternative folk, minimalism, indie, acoustic earth tones!, experimental and many more... but they all hold folk very close to heart. It's apparent underneath the flow of the songs, both on their albums, and in their live shows. Stay tuned for more tracks from the upcoming album which will be released winter 2011.

Bean Dolan writes the lyrics and song structures, but almost everyone else has their own projects on the go as well. As a result, some live shows can end up having a three or four band bill, and never need to stray outside a core group of musicians, as all musicians seen here in Resurrection Fern, also feature in the other groups and projects.
GETTING AN ALBUM:
Resurrection Fern are available on iTunes, as well as a whole host of other online sellers too. Have a look at whatever digital music provider you prefer, hopefully we'll be there!
The band also sell hard copies of the album(along with the debut album 'Earth Rising') through PAYPAL on their myspace page albums will be posted anywhere in the world!
It's worth noting that both albums have been created using 100% recycled materials, the ink is a soya-based ink, and the glue is eco-friendly.
