A Platform for Ethnically and Culturally Inspired Music
ABOUT
Hillbilly Outlaw Folk, Americana, and Skiffle from the green hills and valleys of 'Lawrence country'. Some say these folks have spent too long in the woods drinking moonshine!

Psycho-skiffle through to lo-fi Country/Folk sung by folks from the woods.
'Escape this Wicked Life,' the debut CD, was described with these immortal words by Captain Pigheart (Nottingham's only inland pirate): "An excellent album (Escape This Wicked Life) - you would have to be an idiot or dead not to buy it... and if you're dead, it should have been a requirement of your will."
The new CD 'Sons & Lovers' was released in December 2015.
Lucas Jackson (Country Retreat Radio) said, "It's as British as the Kinks, but with that 60's Townes Van Zandt feel."
Paul Kerr (Americana UK) said, "There's harmonica, accordion, banjo, fiddle & guitars... and songs that could have been penned by the Pogues or Ewan MacColl....
