Leaping into action

The forest is quiet today, apart from the bull frogs, the creaking of the pines, and the soft buzz of highway 54 in the distance. Spring time is coming and we’ve been planting seeds in North Carolina (literally).

Our first show was on Leap Day. First show of the year, first show in the US since 2019, first show post Green-card (apart from the odd song or two while we were in Brooklyn selling Xmas trees). It was a great turn out and the audience really brought the energy, it felt like the community was lifting us up.  It was so good to perform alongside our Brother Alan’s band - Lagomorph Quartet, and fellow troubadour, Liana Gabel.

We are moving out of winter’s era of reflection, and gathering momentum for A Different Thread as spring unfurls. We have plans to sew, ideas to germinate, seedlings to grow, including our next record, which currently waits in demo phase.  We’re working towards a 2025 release and can’t wait to get these songs down in the studio.  

We recorded a live video for one of the new songs ‘The Prophet’ for our Patreon and shared in on our YouTube.

Our UK tour is coming together for Aug-Oct and we have some new music videos coming your way too. We’re missing our UK Threadheads and pals, and can’t wait to see you all and tour with Mike again at the end of the summer. Dates so far include Green Gathering Festival, What’s Cookin’ London, The Hub, Lichfield, Chapel Arts, Bath and Tangled Blues Festival to name a few.

We will be annoucing more info soon, if you’d like to host a private show, or see us at a venue near you, please get in touch!

Until then, enjoy the live video, and check out our Patreon for a cheeky listen to the demos we’ve made for our next album!
