Released
on 30th November 2008, Songs from the Uglee Meadow features ten original songs
inspired by nature and tales of myth and legend. Having already won acclaim from
various quarters including Michael Tyack of Circulus and Marianne Segal, folk
legend of the 1970's, and blending medieval, celtic, folk and contemporary
influences, Songs from the Uglee Meadow should appeal to all lovers of the
acoustic folk style.
"I am very impressed. Beautiful voice and really nice
arrangements. I have strong connections with the folk world and this is one of
the best things I have heard recently."
Andy Hemsley, Journalist
The album
"Songs from the Uglee Meadow" is inspired by a serene and beautiful place in
East Sussex called the Uglee Meadow. With the involvement of musicians such as
Will Summers from Circulus on crumhorns, recorders and other blowy things and
Philip Martin (alias Drohne) on hurdy gurdy and pipes. Songs inspired by
quiet woods, rushing streams, misty meadows, lonely moorsand dancing fires
imbued with an air of timelessness"
