Annelies van Gramberen and Sim Van Thienen build a bridge between lutenist John Dowland and singer-songwriter Nick Drake D O W L N D R A K E unites the melancholy of the Renaissance lutenist John Dowland (1563-1626) and the British singer-songwriter Nick Drake (1948-1974). The influence of both troubadours can hardly be underestimated. Sopraan Annelies van Gramberen and guitarist Sim Van Thienen weave the intimate and catchy songs into a layered sound tapestry.
