   About FLAXENBY

Flaxenby provide a timeless, contemporary tilt on folk...The lyrical quality of the songwriting portrays an edgy, graceful energy, interwoven with experienced musical skill that creates that Flaxenby sound...

Sam McLeod blends her folk, rock and jazz influences with a bluesy depth with instinctive, vocal versitility. Chris Buttery's earthy vocals and americana influenced songwriting has stood him in good stead in the past as a founder member of Bill Caddick's 'Jackfield Riverbillies'. Andy Jones's perfect expression on the fiddle complements with soft celtic undertones.

Shropshire's rich tapestry of history provides a wonderful landscape for inspiration. Look out for them live...It's powerful stuff!

**Nice Things...**

"...'Brand New' is an uplifting album, it's rich in images that give you hope" FATEA

"...Impressive" Maverick

"...Classy songs" Bill Caddick

"...Great songs, great singing, lovely playing" Colvin Quarmby

"...Fabulous - Flaxenby are so worth a visit!" Anthony John Clarke

"...Skillfull songwriting and musical panache" Genevieve Tudor ( BBC Radio)

O Wow! Are you all coming to the Michael Chapman gig. Rest assured your place with Salvador Dali and Anoushka Shankar is guaranteed!  Even if Yoko drops me a line to say she's coming too!
