Orders via the website exclusively include liner notes, hi-res photos, a bonus track, 'Zennor,' a video download of the title track, and five raw field recordings.

Composed and compiled over five weeks in West Cornwall, on mainland England’s extreme southwestern edge, ‘Kernow’ melds soundscapes created in-studio with field recordings collected in and near seven towns and villages on the Penwith peninsula. Although each soundscape could serve as a stand-alone piece, the work is offered as a larger, classically inspired suite that attempts to fuse the natural sounds of Cornish autumn with the compositional elements that they inspire.

Recorded at The Studio, Penzance, United Kingdom

Mixed and mastered at Sterling Studios, West Chester, PA

Press / Reviews

“Field recordings decorate 'Kernow'...The Penwith Peninsula is brought to life as instrumental serenades smooth the changing of the seasons”

— A Closer Listen

“With an approach that pushes past cerebral boundaries, Pedrick is one of the most original guitar voices to arrive on the scene since Pat Metheny or John Abercrombie.”

— Critical Jazz

“Pedrick opened the show with a lick that would have made Jimi blush. ”
