about

Having had many of these songs in my head for decades, I mainly worked from memory and always by ear when arranging them - conscious of trying to honour Leon’s virtuosic and frequently cross-genre amplification of under-told histories, within the parameters of my own musical voice.

This is a fancy way of saying that I made lots of mistakes – sorry Leon! The “folk process” is all very well until it happens to you.

A glorious hymn to art and English radicalism.
