digipak. SHADYGROVE was born during fall 2016, by violinist Fabio "Lethien" Polo (Elvenking, All my faith lost...) and singer Lisy Stefanoni (Ex-Evenoire). Enriched by folk music influences during their personal career, they decided to join forces to create a band with a unique sound, mixing the popular acoustic music of Northern Italy and the atmospheres of the enchanted lands of all Europe. While the songs were growing, talented and enthusiastic musicians joined the project: Simone Morettin (ex-Elvenking), Davide Papa (Insanity Fair), Elena Crolle (Sound Storm) and Matteo Comar. The debut album "In the heart of Scarlet Wood" is a wandering into the folklore, the mysticism and the magic, that are hidden in many places of the World. The main conductor of this journey is the nature, which is always full of beauty and power, but somehow can be very sad and obscure. Legendary characters, mythological creatures and spirits are the mandatory passage into this 9 tracks. By means of ethereal vocals, folk instruments and tribal percussions, the listener can begin the journey passing through ancient paths, forests, colourful fields, oceans and far and solitary landscapes
