Hello, 

I'm Astrid Williamson.

After many years, twenty-six to be exact, nine albums, record deals, publishing deals, many collaborations, moonlighting in Dead Can Dance, teaching, a Requiem, I hope the music speaks for itself.

I've decided to create this Patreon because I want to connect with you here and now and create a space for us to share something that feels more real than just the odd post,  share,  like or a swift 'salute' after a gig.  

Over the years I've seen the music industry transformed, and the challenge to sustain the integrity and devotion required to be a creative artist seems more prevalent than ever. But that challenge is also a process, creating art out of thin air (alchemised with a soul...) is inexplicable, and magical. Your presence here is magical, to me. So thank you for coming along. 

Let's transcend the usual fan/artist social media mores and become a more authentic collective, and along with the music share thoughts and feelings, developing an ethos of love, connection and authenticity.
