Folkandroots	Jun 15 2009 11:27 AM The Kittiwakes - CD Launch - Clerkenwell 22nd June Leigh-on-Sea 3-piece, The Kittiwakes, celebrate the release of their Midwich Records debut, ‘Lofoten Calling’, a collection of original folk songs written about the people, landscape, folklore and history of the Lofoten Islands above the Arctic Circle and influenced by the traditional music of Norway and the British Isles. 'The Kittiwakes craft timeless and magical acoustically dappled folk treats - gentle and alluring ostensibly Gaelic in sound texture and gorgeously flighty braided as they are by corteges of mandolins, accordions and violins.' [LOSING TODAY] 'The Kittiwakes (rissa tridactyla): delicious, intriguing and evocative music, beautifully played and sung by this talented trio. Recommended to twitchers and lovers of folk music alike' [LEIGH FOLK FESTIVAL] See http://www.electroacousticclub.com for details of the venue etc

JD and the Longfellows	Aug 26 2008 6:46 PM Hey there Thanks for including us on your friends list. I hope that you liked the songs! As a Boston radio station said about our first album......... “This isn't just the best damned drinking album of the year; it's the best damned CD to play before you go out drinking to pump yourself up album of the year” I reckon it also goes for our live show. So come along one day, see if you can drink us under the table and dance us off of the stage! Cheers (p.s. the second album is even better!! with free downloads on Myspace) JD
