Hi people...
Ok, i wont take up too much of your time here....just wanted to
remind you that the second of our May gigs happens this Wednesday-KIM THOMPSETT
at Orange Street music club-(details below....)
Also, very exciting news is
that, the utterly amazing CIRCULUS have agreed to play for us at the club in
September-some of you were lucky to see some Circulus members in their PRINCES
IN THE TOWER incarnation, at the recent Medieval gig-well, now you can see the
whole bands performance of .........
" Circulus, a tripped-out prog homage to
both '70s psych and 12th-century chamber music. It's all about the burning
scarecrows, see. The mystical mash-up of a lute, a Moog and various
Arabic-sounding woodwind instruments is a bit like beef ice cream: unusual, but
somehow right."
More info.to come.

Also, the
very lovely OWL SERVICE played a blinder, at Islingtons UNION CHAPEL on sunday,
with some new material being showcased (see attached photo)-their gig supporting
MARTIN CARTHY at the club really will be something to crawl over broken glass
for...failing that, some tickets are still available, from me, or the venue
(details and gig diary below).
Ok, hope to see some of you at Kims gig on
weds,
Best wishes, Jason

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 moors and dancing fires
imbued with an air of
timelessness….
