Just wanted to say I really appreciate you posting this stuff — I don’t often have much comment to make, but I showed this news to my dad (as we live in the West Country and he’s an avid birdwatcher) and he was very pleased :)

If I were in the states I’d def see them! Will have to keep an eye out for a UK tour haha. Shame no-one was buying merch, as they have an aesthetic that’d work great for Ts. Also I’ve listened to the album about 4 times since the first comment haha

Imagine I bothered to look up the Matt Damon rapidly aging gif, and put it in this reply. If it’s not too much trouble.

I can do this one by heart haha. Other great ones for this era are ‘Enough is enough’, their acoustic rendition of ‘Bella Ciao’, ‘mouthful of shit’… the list goes on.

I do! Violin to a decent level, and a passing familiarity with the bass guitar (first song I learned was ‘Born under a bad sign haha). And yourself? Is it mainly guitar?

 

Sitting somewhere between folk, techno and dance music are the Peatbog Faeries. I’ve seen them live and they are incredible.

Couple of songs: Caberdrone: high tempo dance number, with bagpipes

Humours of Ardnamurchan: probably one of my favourite of theirs, from their newest album. Incredible fiddle playing.

Dragon’s Apprentice: slower track, for variety.

I know a few other bands in that genre, if anyone particularly likes it. Fairly niche!

Nice song! I know what you mean about the tone of the guitar :)

I came at the blues from the rock direction (via Gary Moore, who I’d definitely recommend if you’re not familiar — Parisienne Walkways is my favourite of his).

 
 
 

Does anyone know of good resources for the black side of Bf4 Pirc positions? Nothing on it in Moskalenko’s book (perfect Pirc modern), and it’d be nice to read something on the subtleties of this specific line, as it comes up often vs Jobava players.
