Golden Slumbers
Golden Slumbers is an album of Beatles songs turned to lullabies by Sudhananda and Lucia Lilikoi. It’s available on Bandcamp as download and streaming. It is also available on CDbaby, Amazon, Apple Music, Spotify.
It was released in 2019 and it features some of our favorite Beatles tunes.
In Sudhananda’s words:
“This album started out as an instrumental lullaby recording of BEATLES songs intended for a children's music label that never materialized so I shelved the project for years. Then I met Lucia Lilikoi, a wonderful singer from Spain with a gorgeous voice. She is also a big BEATLES fan and so the idea was born to turn the project into a vocal recording. I call it a lullaby album but really it is for listeners of all ages and transcends that label. The instrumentation is acoustic and the mood is soothing, relaxed and slowed down. The album is recorded in 432 Hz tuning which gives it a warmer, more mellow and healing feel than the standard 440 Hz tuning. I hope you will enjoy our unique renditions of these classic songs.”
Lucia and Chris
