SUMMARY:The Shackleton Trio (BYOB)
DESCRIPTION:Captivating songwriting and fiery tunes that combine mandolin\, fiddle\, guitar and banjo with powerful three part harmonies. The unmistakable sound of The Shackleton Trio brings to life the stories of their native East Anglia\, and beyond. \nSeptember 2024 sees the band touring a brand new album\, as they look ahead to celebrating their 10 year anniversary in 2025. The trio features Georgia Shackleton (fiddle\, vocals)\, Aaren Bennett (guitar) and Nic Zuppardi (mandolin and banjo). Collectively the band draw influence from British\, American and Scandinavian folk traditions\, whilst Georgia’s flair for sourcing largely unsung material from East Anglia keeps the band firmly rooted in their local tradition. \nAlmost a decade performing together has seen the band played on BBC Radio 2\, Radio 3 and Radio 4\, BBC 6 Music\, RTE 1\, BBC Countryfile\, press coverage gleaming ★★★★★ reviews\, an appearance on Cambridge Folk Festival’s prestigious main stage\, a host of UK and European festivals and international tours\, and many miles in the Mondeo. This is a band that clearly enjoys playing together\, and are not to be missed. \n\nSOLD OUT

SUMMARY:JOHN BLEK (BYOB)
DESCRIPTION:Cork-based songwriter/musician John Blek is clearly a creative multihyphenate kind of guy. For the past 10 years\, he has steered a steady course from one classy music style to another\, be it the folksy ruminations of his debut\, Leave Your Love at the Door\, or the alt.country tunes of Borders (with his occasional band\, The Rats). \nBlek’s latest album swaps a spry sparseness for the musical equivalent of luxury. Recorded a year ago\, the album’s 10 tracks are textbook examples of how to imbue songs with elegance without losing sight of the often strong-minded intent that inspired them in the first place. \nThe underlying music themes for Until the Rivers Run Dry\, Blek writes in the PR blurb\, brim with “Paul McCartney moments and Scott Walker swagger”\, and while these influences are imperceptibly filtered throughout\, alongside hints of classic pop songs by other notable artists\, the most obvious reference points belong to Blek’s casual yet singular artistic grace. \nIndeed\, listening to gems of songs such as Once in a While\, Restless Sea\, Raven’s Cry\, Lyric & Air\, Come Undone\, the sublime closing track\, Floating Aimlessly\, and the rest (most of which feature featherlight strings by Colm Mac Con Iomaire and backing/co-vocals by Cathy Davey) you might wonder why on earth Blek remains one of Ireland’s best-kept secrets.

SUMMARY:SONGDOG (BYOB)
DESCRIPTION:Songdog are a folk noir trio based around Welsh songwriter Lyndon Morgans\, whose most recent album ‘Of Gods And Men’ received glowing reviews in Uncut\, Mojo\, RnR\, Goldmine and Americana UK amongst others. Previous albums were released to equally great reviews. Lyndon’s tracks have been featured on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6Music plus other regional and international shows\, he has recorded a session for Tom Robinson’s show and had his music praised by the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Robert Wyatt.\n\nPrevious live dates have included headline shows at London’s St Pancras Church\, Bloomsbury Theatre\, Kings Place\, the Roundhouse Studio\, Union Chapel and the ICA\, plus high profile supports and appearances at various festivals in the UK\, France\, Netherlands\, Japan\, Canada\, Spain\, Sweden and Russia.\n\n\nWhat they’ve said about the music:\n“Lo-fi and alluring\, like a heady mix of Eels and Lambchop. A fully qualified peer of such droll\, self- deprecating Americans as Kurt Wagner\, Stephin Merritt and Mark Everett.” UNCUT (Andrew Mueller)\n“Soaring\, Mellotron-inflected arrangements enhance Morgans’ acutely observed lyrics.” MOJO (John Aizlewood)\n“They create stark word snapshots and capture moments in a life of music\, love\, mistake\, and regret. You only write these songs if you paid attention while living.” AMERICANA UK (Michael Macy)\n“If he were a Wainwright\, he’d be Loudon III\, not Rufus. I’d give a body part to write poetry like this.” RnR (Andrew Darlington)\n“He has a brilliant way of investing despair and dysfunction with romance. Stellar stuff indeed.” FATEA (Mike Davies)\n“Bejewelled lyrics of wit\, woe & wonder” MIRROR (Gavin Martin)\n“Terrific stuff!” Robert Wyatt\n“Intense & sensual collection of baroque\, last chance lives…supremely evocative imagery that lesser poets can only aspire to” MAVERICK \nCurrent album:https://tinyurl.com/LyndonMorgans-OfGodsAndMen \nSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/SongdogSpotify \nVideo link: www.youtube.com/bravetales \nSongdog site:www.songdog.co.uk
