"strange, twisty-melodied songs musing on identity, relationships and the ineffable separateness of human souls....An album perched poignantly on the cusp of simplicity and sophistication. " MOJO
'Homespun' were a band formed in 2003 by musician/songwriter David Rotheray.They released three albums, concluding with 'Short Stories From East Yorkshire' in 2008. Following the split of the band, Rotheray is planning to continue to work, as a solo artist.
The Homespun Recordings label will continue to operate, although it is unclear whether members of the band will still be working together or not. Any news on this will appear here, and the back catalogue of albums and merchandise will still be available.
'Homespun' reserve the right to do a 'cash-in' re-union tour at some future date, if one of the songs is in a film or something.

Just stopping by to say hello and give you some news. The new album 'Coolgilly and the Freakshow' from Centascope is now available worldwide from CD Baby and directly from the merchandise page of the official website. You can also get the album from Apple iTunes, MSN Music, Rhapsody, Napster, Amazon and many more.
That's a shame, will treasure my albums all the more now. May I point out you did promise ITALY would be performed at the next gig, doesn't have to be a Homespun gig, lol!
I look forward to hearing more about your solo venture.
