A Sunday Song: August 2012

http://asundaysong.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, 26 August 2012. A little while ago we had the excellent Sam Brookes. Drop into the session and he performed this poignant song of an unrepentant criminal sentenced to death and his last waking thoughts. The song was originally called 'Jack Hall', the eponymous character being a 18th century criminal hung (hanged? Over the ensuing years the song has produced numerous offspring. And posits that as Jack was hung in 1701 and Benbow died in 1702, the latter song was written to fit the former tune.

wordsandmusic: February 2012

http://soundsandtexts.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, February 09, 2012. Review: Pete Morton (with Gren Bartley support), Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough, Friday, February 3d, 2012. Minus five here when I got back. but warmed by the musics that I almost avoided through inertia and the onset of a cold. And a surprisingly good turnout for the TappedButSettling. Gig at the Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough (God's Little Acre), given the weather. But PeteMorton. Will usually pull a crowd and with support from Gren Bartley. Grab a taste here.

I would like to thank. Happy 2014. A much nicer year in number than 2013 - I'm stupidly, irrationally superstitious - but I hope 2014 brings more of the nice things that occurred last year. So just a quick writing update, as it's already become a busy month. My first piece for Canadian magazine, Penguin Eggs. Is out now: a profile of the vocally sublime, fiddly-fantastic, Jackie Oates. I'm so chuffed to be invited to write for the magazine, it's a good one. For future issues of FiddleOn.
