@merry_hell_band are just fantastic. After a slightly troubling time involving cancelled tours and other things that make you go eep, they were just the tonic I needed, reminding me of all the good things. Thanks guys 😍

Fab time in Italy. Particular highlight was the audience of little children who’d been playing in the street, who settled themselves down for a thorough listen to our soundcheck, and roundly applauded every fragment of noise we made. We were given a (delicious) beer by our hosts directly afterwards, at which point one little boy came running up to Phil, saying in urgent Italian, “excuse me, excuse me, but that drink is only for grown up people!” Busted.

We’re really pleased with this beautifully written review from Songlines Magazine. We’ll be playing a lot of this material live at Nettlebed Folk Club on Monday-

“Once again clinging to the wilder, craggier edges of the British Isles…[they] conjure an album of ethereal promise.”
