Maria, Ida - Sacandalize My Name

Through her participation on a CD project raising awareness of the rights for homosexuals and lesbians to get married within the frame of the Church of Norway, she got in contact with Kirkelig Kulturverksted, and started a collaboration with the label. This became her way to make a dream come true: to turn back to the cradle of rock?n roll: American spirituals. Ida Maria found some forgotten treasures from a very special part of the American heritage. She started digging into old recordings and found songs that express the naked and distilled faith- and life experiences of the Afro americans from the 19th and early 20th century.
