First time to record anything - so it sure ain't perfect, feeling pretty shy too. *gulp* Done in one take. All the hard work (recording, mastering, guitar and banjo) done by Simon Attwell and Julio "Gugs" Sigauque. I am the singer. "The Cuckoo" - an old folk ballad, has been recorded by many people including Bob Dylan, Taj Mahal, Laura Veirs...so many! It's origin is England as far as I know.

The Cuckoo

One of Benjamin Frank Shelton (January 1, 1902 – February 28, 1963) few surviving songs it seems. A beauty it is.

Here is our own version - Thanks to my wonderful brother Simon Attwell and Julio Sigauque. Masters of music. Genius talent of musical instruments, direction and mastering. Again done in Simons flat with a couple of street sounds in the back ground. Thanks for your time.  Much love. 

Ps: @KatjaBenkö for you and your cool kitty cat named Banjo!

Enjoyment, togetherness and collaboration in music. Country, folk to electronic and hiphop and of course African as that is where I call home. Discovering and collecting music excites my soul. So does singing!
