Pink Stone Album + Book - Hardcopy Bundle
Enjoy the songs and stories of Pink Stone: Songs from Moose Lodge with this hardcopy bundle of the album and book.
Album: At times both melancholic and joyous, the ten-song collection showcases Wren’s emotive vocals and classical-guitar accompaniment, bolstered by roots/Americana instrumentation and soothing textures of electric guitars and harmony vocals.
Book: This 98-page collection of essay vignettes, journal entries, and correspondence excerpts from Wren’s time in the Methow Valley includes song lyrics, watercolor illustrations of local flora and fauna by Anna Briggs, and photos by Sol Gutierrez. Printed on natural paper with a velvety cover, the 5.5 x 5-inch, small-format chapbook is designed to nestle perfectly beside the physical album on your shelf: a lifelong companion to the music.

A Multimedia Exploration of Nature, Health & Intimacy
For a brief time, Wren called Moose Lodge, a cabin in the Okanogan Forest, her home. Creatively adrift and physically unwell, over her months in the Methow Valley her strength began to return. With it came her voice, and she penned a series of songs and writings inspired by the surrounding golden hills, wild river valleys, and mountain peaks. The result was a new album of music and an extended lyric book that tell her story of perseverance and renewal in the beautiful Methow Valley.
About the Companion Book
Bursting with vibrant landscape photos by Sol Gutierrez and watercolor illustrations of the region's flora and fauna by Anna Briggs, the Companion Book provides a contemplative journey through four seasons in the valley—and also reveals the inspiration and backstory of many songs.
“A gentle gem of beautifully performed reflective songs [like] an Annie Dillard poem.”

“The stirring third album from Wren glows with an irrepressible hope… Full of rivers, mountains, otters, fish, cedars and corn stalks, the record is an ecosystem all its own.”
