Flight of a Green Heron
Featuring:
Heron – Guitar
Alder – Flute
Devin River – Violin

This 30-minute raw, live capture peacefully unveils Heron’s spiraling electric guitar arpeggios alongside meditative drone movements. It is a deep, soil-rich soundscape offering the listener a journey into Heron’s personal and profound earth descent. Alder’s deeply resonant flute wisps hold council with those whom we only feel—a haunting yet calm and affirming invocation of spirit through sacred breathwork. The antiquity of Devin’s violin sings to spirits, braiding the strength of the ensemble in a most beautiful and tender way. Flight of a Green Heron’s tranquil and introspective spiritual soundcraft weaves a serene, chamber-like devotional world music.

At times, it recalls the cinematic work of Bruce Langhorne, early Amber Asylum, Yatha Sidhra’s A Meditation Mass, or Between’s And the Waters OpenedFlight of a Green Heron’s unhurried pace and contemplative nature still the mind while evoking a heightened sense of well-being—prayers performed through stillness after fire, and the spaces within the roots.

A full-length studio album is in development...

Cover art revealed for the forthcoming debut LABYRINTHUS SOLITUDINEM `Tenebras Mentis Excessus : Possession’ - deluxe 6” gatefold CD & digital. LABYRINTHUS SOLITUDINEM a.k.a. Andrew Ewan McInnis, is authentic and creative! A multi instrumentalist and composer through the sonic implements of drums, percussion, guitars, keyboards, synthesizers and horns. With vocal assistance by M. Nihilist, McInnis sets a deepening focus on esoteric studies and practices, film score, sound design, jazz, classical and music history from ancient to Harlem renaissance. Andrew Ewan McInnis (AE Machinas) is perhaps one of the most unique and original artists working in underground music today.

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

I was given the honour of crafting the entire artwork and layout for this release. Most of you are unaware of my non traditional `collage’ art I’ve been creating for bands and my own music for many years now. Elements within the process include original photographed imagery, mixed with pressed & scanned flora meticulously cleaned and digitally layered. This beings head dressing is a heavily layered scanned Lucifer Crocosmia flower from our garden. The beings neck adornments are scanned in seed pods from a dried floral arrangement to create said necklace. The bust of this being was shot in a museum and manipulated. Anyhow. More to come and expect this release to drop sometime late summer/fall 2025!

Glass Throat Recordings just moved into a new office...

As I look to grow the label, I've moved into a dedicated office space which is adjacent to the performance/rehearsal space. Business will be conducted out of here obviously. However the fun part is, coinciding with performances the office will be open to those in attendance. Offering a space that sort of works as a GTR store and merchandise area for the performer of the evening.

Thanks for taking a look and more to come...

-Chet W. Scott


An all new space for extremely intimate performances...


We have finished our performance & rehearsal space and wanted to share with you some pics. Glass Throat Recordings offered our very first showcase (as a newly dedicated space) nearly a year ago now. We were extremely grateful to have hosted our friend Patrick Walker of 40 Watt Sun / Warning. Hailing from the United Kingdom, Patrick performed a private two hour set in front of 20 people.


We have plans for future performances including:

~ At the Head of the Woods ~

~ Elemental Chrysalis ~

~ Cycle of the Raven Talons ~

A few others are currently in the process of confirmation. More to come regarding shows. Below is a rehearsal pic taken from the Elemental Chrysalis as we prepare to support our forthcoming album. Unfortunately our beloved James is not pictured as he lives three hours South of us. However, we've been able to make it work so far. The flame is lit for him!
