Folk Duo Tabernis Reveals New Single, “Tenebrae” + Video!

Just having solidified their new partnership with Napalm Records, folk duo TABERNIS expands the invitation to their enigmatic ritual with new single “Tenebrae”. The first offering from their upcoming debut album, Seasons of the Dark Hive, unveiled April 24, 2026, is named after the Latin word for “darkness” and intertwines ancient tradition and dark mysticism in an array of moody instrumentals. Buoyantly buzzing in nature, it offers an enchanting glimpse into the intoxicating experience that is TABERNIS. Welcome to the Dark Hive.

TABERNIS about “Tenebrae”:

“‘Tenebrae’ is the first visual approach toward the heart of the Dark Hive. It is a sanctuary of shadow, both welcoming and filled with mysteries. In this first revealed track, the melancholy fades to make room for a more rhythmic approach. The track has a steady tempo, and the balance between slowness and urgency allows you to close your eyes and let yourself be carried into your inner journey with energy and lightness. Live, ‘Tenebrae’ will let you move naturally, connect with others, and let go. And we keep the ritual of opening the passage: we will travel to share our music in this physical plane, to meet each other and forget our personal darkness.”

TABERNIS about Seasons of the Dark Hive:

“The album Season of the Dark Hive came to life naturally, without ever forcing anything. We let the energies that live within us come out in an authentic way, using the keys we have at our disposal. With the support of Napalm Records, we can deliver quality work and open the world of TABERNIS to humans from all horizons. We drew from cultures and musical styles from all eras, from everything that has inspired us through the ages, while keeping our foundation: drum & bagpipe. This is only the beginning of the story. The energies of the seasons guide our lives and our strength, just as they do on this album.”
