"...a giant slab of traditional folk complete with stomping, foot tapping rhythm that bursts with dark energy... Mr Bones And The Dreamers are proof that it is possible to turn the grey streets of the Midlands into something far from dreary and generic if you are brave enough to believe in your ideals and go it alone" God Is In The TV
"When a band singing the pain of a man cast adrift in a harsh world can make you want to jump up and sing along, then perhaps you are listening to something a little special" Clickmusic
"Lush, thick texture, a joyful style of indie music that you can't help but fall for" Tasty Fanzine
"'Mr Bones & co stumble and soar over an ever blackening landscape, only looking back it's far sparklier than you ever realised" The Fly
"epic upbeat folky sound, hard not to be transfixed by their energy" Burn FM
"a truly soulful blend of folk & punk, an unexpected treasure" Strummerville

Enjoyed playing with you at the Folk House and listening to your CD. You're also playing with Kill It Kid! They're amazing!
We have an album launch at the Croft with visual projections this Saturday (3rd October) if you're around. We also have two new tracks (Trip Up & A Sound Will Guide You) from the album added to our myspace page. Our 9 minute drum 'n bass soundscape "One More" will be added towards the end of this week too!
This month we mostly have Catie Curtis (with a Richard Thompson cover), Lindsay Fuller and The Cheap Dates (and who amongst us isn't?), Josh Fix with a track from the well-titled album This Town Is Starting To Make Me Angry and the rather lovely Red Rooster.
