Pefkin Pefkin is the alter ego of Gayle Brogan, creator of slowly-unfolding, ritualistic hymnals that draw heavily on the landscape and natural world. She is also a member of Burd Ellen, Greenshank and Meadowsilver.

Bandcamp Friday!
One week since Unfurling came out.
If you want to support me by getting a download or prints or back catalogue, this is a very good day to do it!

Sometimes an LP is just another LP.
Sometimes it's a one-off, hand-created work of art.

Gig news!
I am playing at Sidney and Matilda as support to Foundling, described as "Dark dream pop music with broad soundscapes" which sounds right up my street.
I will have the few remaining copies of my new album with me and will be playing mostly songs from that too.
