Set Out 01:11
I'll set out, I don't know what I'll find. Oh I'll set out, I don't know what I'll find. Ooooo we'll set out, we don't know what we'll find. We'll set out, we don't know what we'll find.
2.
In Front 03:59
I think of you by night, I think of you by day. You're wound up in my heart, it's there you'll stay. Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh. One foot in front of the other, what can we do. Ohhh sisters and brothers, it's all up to you. You're angry at the past, the threads that are so fine. They determine so much, our lives they do define. Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh. One foot in front of the other, what can we do. Ohhh, sisters and brothers, it's all up to you.
3.
I have a love he's far away, how many miles I couldn't say. It may be weeks it may be years, before we share this space. Oh this space. Oh this space, oh this space. I have a love and I don't know why, it happened now and under these circumstances. All I know is that I think he is home. When will we share this space. When will we share this space, ohhhh.
4.
Wish upon a star I wanna be in your heart, I wish upon the moon, I wanna make you swoon. But no matter how much of the sky I wish upon you remain, a mystery. To meeeeeee, to meeeeee. Something about the way you move and the way you say things. No matter how much I try to keep you from my mind, you remain thereeeeeee. Ooo la la la la la la la la la.
5.
Slowly 02:32
Slowly, slowly we see, from there. I won't hide anymore. I won't hide anymore, from the situation. Slowly, slowly we see from there. Speak and be open, that's how we know. That all has been forgiven, like the breeze blow. Blow, blow, blow, blow. Oooooooooooooo.
6.
Fine 01:33
Fine, fine, fine. Don't know how you do it to me, all I know is that I'm fine. Don't know how you do it to me, all I know is that I 'm more than fine, fine, fine. Fine, fine. Yeah, yeah.

Sage Brush 02:36
I'm in love with a man from the sage bush, what kind of life is that for me. I'm in love with a man from the sage bush, what kind of life is that for me. Don't wanna hear no gunshots. Don't wanna hear no wild dogs. I love a man from the sage bush, what kind of life is that for me. I love a man from the sage bush, what kind of life is that for me. I love a man from the sage bush, what kind of life is that for me. I kinda like those wild flowers, n it's so warm, warm inside. I love a man from the sage bush, a kinda nice, life for me.
8.
Lost in You 00:29
I forget what they, lost in you. I'm lost in you, I'm lost in you I'm lost in you, I'm lost in you, I'm.
9.
All You Are 03:59
I wanna be where you are, I wanna peer inside those eyes. It's in there that I can see myself as well, it's where we meet. All you are, all you are. They'd never be, all you are. All you are, all you are. They'd never be all you are. I wanna be inside those natural materials. I wanna build them, feel them. All you are, all you are. They'd never be all you are. All you are, all you are. They'd never be all you are. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. All you are, all you are. They'd never be all you are. All you are, all you are, they'd never be all you are.
10.
All Is 00:32
Hey oh, hey oh. Hey oh, hey oh. Hey oh, hey oh. Hey oh, hey oh.
11.
Why Not Me 04:31
Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh. Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh. Where do they go, nobody knows. Taken away from us. Time will not tell, on secrets we dwell. Trying to fill in the gaps. Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh. Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh. We yearn for control, for meaning and a hold, on all of life's mysteries. Time will not tell, on secrets we dwell. Trying to fill in the gaps. Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh. Why not me oh, why not me oh. Why not me oh, ohhhhhhhh.
12.
How can I go on without you here, I can't be strong you changed me for ever. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh. Oh how can I go on, in this space when I'm not here, you've kept me far away.
13.
Lullaby 01:29
You will grow inside of me and I will love you infinitely. From right now before you're made, oh beyond my dying days. We will grow you big and strong and make you feel so safe and warm. Safe and warm. Safe and warm. Safe and warm. Safe and warm.
14.
Grow 04:34
Grow. Growth is the only thing that will get us anywhere, It's the only thing that will stop us hurting those who we care for, those who we care for. Those that we care for, those that we care for. Growth it is life in itself, when we're not connected there is no where to go, nothing to be. Growth is the only thing that will get us anywhere, it's the only thing that will stop us hurting those that we care for, those who we care for, those who we care for, those that we care for. Growth it is life in itself, when we're not connected there is no where to go, nothing to be. Be. Be. Be. Be. Be. Grow. Grow. Grow. Grow. Grow.
15.
Lament 01:13
This is my lament, why do we. I've heard it all, you don't know how it is. Why do we act in vain what drives us in this game. We want to know, but it doesn't make sense.

about

"Cliffside Woman" is the Debut Album from Australian artist Shhor.

//// SHHOR "CLIFFSIDE WOMAN" ////////////////

Cliffside Woman was written and recorded by Shhor across four continents (Australia, Poland, USA, Indonesia, China) using beautiful, naturally acoustic spaces; a handheld recording device and a solar powered recording studio in New Mexico.

This debut album is a celebration of voice and of humanness, of healing through making sound, and of releasing your sound to be met by nature (as off a cliff) and those people who resonate with it.

Space. This album is also an exploration of space; the space between people, the space between yourself and your own emotions, the space between the voice and the space it fills.

Cliffside Woman is largely self written, recorded and produced. “All You Are” and “Slowly” include additional co-production from Dale McMahon and Rob McPherson in Melbourne, Australia.

Shhor is from the Island of Tasmania, southern Australia, but currently resides in Northern New Mexico, building off the grid. She misses sitting and singing from the cliffs of the Island but for now she can do so from the side of the Rio Grande Gorge, as pictured on the cover photo.


///// SHHOR BIOGRAPHY ///////////////////////////

Shhor (Siobhan O'Rourke) is a Tasmanian (Australian) Singer/Producer who has recently relocated to Taos, New Mexico. Her sound is a soulful amalgamation of her influences- Southern Gospel, Blues, Jazz, Soul and Ambient Electronica. From her home island of Tasmania, Shhor moved to Melbourne (Australia) where her astoundingly dynamic voice and stage presence earned her an integral role in the scene that spawned the careers of Hiatus Kaiyote and Daniel Merriweather, Jazz Party and allowed for her to share a stage with D'Angelo.

As a professionally trained Solo Vocalist and Chorus Leader, Shhor is frequently hired to record her voice alongside hip hop artists and producers including Mphazes (Eminem), BeSpoke Music (Pharoahe Monch, Jill Scott), Illy, and Dylan Joel. Beyond Hip Hop, her vocal writing and recording has been remixed by Grammy Award winning house music legend Louie Vega (Master's at Work) for the song "Weekend Love" on Osunlade's Yoruba Soul Records.

In late 2017 Shhor and Miles Bonny were invited to Poland by the Cultural Institute in Lublin to facilitate a month long series of music workshops. They also toured Poland and Germany in this time. Some of Cliffside Woman was recorded while in Poland, inside a 700 year old building. Additional recordings for Cliffside Woman were completed and compiled in Northern New Mexico where she now lives.
