The music and audio community of Carolyn Hillyer and Nigel Shaw. Welcome to WILDSTREAM, our independent streaming hub, where we are hosting a new music and audio community. Here you can easily access all our music albums, audio stories, live archive, and podcast conversations in one flowing river of sound. WILDSTREAM offers both free and premium content. A subscription is required to access our full library, including exclusive albums, stories, and archives. By creating this new streaming vessel, we hope to nourish sustainability, integrity, and intimacy within the relationship between musicians and listeners, and to bring the wild heart back into the sharing of music. We live and work on an ancient hill farm in the heart of Dartmoor, amid upland streams and misted valleys. Here we create all our music albums, books, and paintings, as well as the traditional wooden flutes and frame drums with which we record and perform. Our independent music label SEVENTH WAVE MUSIC was established by Nigel in 1985; our publishing house BRAIDED RIVER features Carolyn's books. WILDSTREAM is our third strand of watery magic! The WILDSTREAM is powered by Insidr, an independent music streaming platform established by Dan Ryland and Kima Otung.
