about

Temple Hymns is a new collaborative project by Joe Reineke and Karyn Gold-Reineke of Society of the Silver Cross, where they invite select artists to collectively write and record new music together at their bespoke studio Temple of the Trees in Seattle, WA to create a series of distinctive singles.

Joe and Karyn personally designed and built Temple of the Trees from ground up - an incredibly unique, state of the art studio resembling a gothic cathedral from another dimension and featuring gorgeous hand-milled wood treatments all throughout from the very trees that grew on the land before.

Each new volume of Temple Hymns will spotlight a different artist they’ve joined forces with to push the musical boundaries of art and explore what’s possible when creative minds come together. Its debut Volume 1 releases March 22, 2024 featuring Thomas (T.J.) Cowgill of King Dude and song “Wife of the Sea”.

lyrics

Have you seen the old man’s daughter
She stole away the light, stole away the light
Her eyes shine up from the water
Like pearls in the night, the wife of the sea

I have lived amongst fools and wolves alike
Hold me close, until the end arrives

She swings her iron lantern
It burns into the past, burns into the past

I have lived amongst wolves and fools alike
Hold me close, until the end arrives

Another day, just like the last
Oh, hold me close, don’t let go
Until, we reach the water
