Lonesome Orchestra is a collaboration between Sebastiaan Koolhoven and Ton Snijders, who worked previously together but now developed their collaboration into an equal partnership in the field of both composition and production.

Both the origin and the locations of these images are unknown, the intriguing images of great beauty were the inspiration for this album.
