Sounds Like
.... someone digging holes in a moonbleached forest, with occaisonal jaunts to the fairground for pop and candyfloss - tales of thieves, blaggers and pantomime cows, ghosts, odd lovers and magical vows. In one way or another the music's a bit like: Tom Waits in Sunday School, Nick Cave lite, Jake Thackray skipping through a moonlit meadow - Nick Drake on caffeine - Martin Carthy on a bender or Leonard Cohen putting up a shelf for the Wickerman.
Ah hello good sir, I'm at work at the moment so i'll have a good listen to your tracks when i get in, it was hard to hear you through the door ha ha! All the best!
Just thought we'd let you know about a gig we're doing which might (lump in throat) be our last. For a number of reasons we're calling it a day after October, at least for a while.
So Saturday the 18th of October is going to be pretty special.
We've got the big Live Room at Plug in Sheffield for the night, and pressganged almost everybody who has ever played with us over the years to join us for an Uber-Gig of Justice.
We're playing from 8 till 10:30 with a bit of a break in the middle. Then we've got the Earth Bar for more dancing and a nice chilled out after-party till 3.
It's £6 in advance from Plug Box Office on rockingham Gate (tel 0114 2413040), Jack's Records on Division Street and online at http://www. the-plug. com/tickets. £8 on the door if there’s any left on the night. And this one’s open to anyone over 14 too!
We're going to blast through into a better, oranger dimension. Please join us.
i had a wonderful time at the lantern last night, was a great gig...here are some photos, message me your email address if you'd like me to send you some more.. cheers marie
