Field Works is a composer and sound designer based in the UK. He is known for his international work, creating music that utilizes sound alone to evoke drama, tension, and impact. His compositions are a testament to his unique ability to manipulate audio to create powerful emotional experiences.

Inspired by artists such as *Folk Group from Bansko*, *Danny Paul Grody*, and *Hayden Pedigo*, Field Works has developed a distinctive style that sets him apart from his contemporaries. His music transports listeners into immersive sonic landscapes, where every note and sound is carefully crafted to elicit deep emotional responses.

With influences ranging from *Masayoshi Fujita* to *Golden Brown*, Field Works' compositions showcase his mastery of combining various elements of sound design with traditional musical structures. His collaborations with renowned artists like *Marisa Anderson* and *Christina Vantzou* have further solidified his position as an innovative force in the industry.

The mystifying 9th album in the Field Works series, Cedars combines cosmic Americana with Western ambient and Middle Eastern influences. Delicate layers of pedal steel, banjo, oud, and hurdy-gurdy ﬂoat atop looping guitar drones to create a soothing, atmospheric chamber where folk and electronic music coalesce. Set to Arabic and English poetry, the song cycle examines some of Earth’s most iconic and ancient forests, revealing our complicated relationship with the natural world. For this special dual-language release, Field Works producer Stuart Hyatt has assembled a supergroup of musicians, poets, and artists. The album is narrated by Youmna Saba and H.C. McEntire. Instrumentalists include Marisa Anderson, Fadi Tabbal, Dena El Saffar, Danny Paul Grody, Bob Hoffnar, Tomás Lozano, Nathan Bowles, Alex Roldan, Youmna Saba, and Stuart Hyatt. Renowned illustrator María Medem brings poems by Todd Fleming Davis and Youmna Saba to life in the accompanying full-color Risograph comic book; and longtime Field Works collaborators PRINTtEXT design the packaging.
