Jenny Owen Youngs: Gorgeous wooden dice and D&D music

Musician Jenny Owen Youngs discovered D&D during the lockdown and now her latest EP, Echo Mountain, as a musical homage to the RRG.

There’s also limited edition wooden dice.

The dice look gorgeous and, sorry to say, have sold out but the artisan maker, DiceKat (aka Kat Ellestad) is on Etsy. You’ll be able to watch for more or even contact the boutique directly.

The lyrics to Dungeons & Dragons will likely ring true for many of us;

Inside the game, you’re okay
Longswords and spellcasting keeps all the bad away
And the monsters look how monsters do
Not like neighbourhood kids with their hands full of rocks for you
And not like the grown ups who should be protecting you

When he’d come home, full to the brim
You know what I know: there’s no talking to him
Oh no, go hide yourself
You know there’ll be hell to pay, and you’re the one paying
But soon as you’re done, we can go back to playing
Dungeons and dragons

You can listen to the whole EP, which is just as good as the Dungeons & Dragons song, on Spotify.
