1. The Journeyman

A song that was collected in Brighton by Mike Yates from the traveller singer Mary Ann Haynes, originally from Portsmouth. I learnt the song from Lady Maisery.

The Colour Of Amber

A song by one of my favourite Blues artists Skip James, originally recorded in 1931.

Hard Time Killin' Floor Blues

A Scottish ballad that I learnt from Nic Jones, also known as Clyde’s Water or The Drowned Lovers. A number of versions were collected by Francis Child and Bertrand Bronson amongst others. Nic’s version appears to be an amalgamation of different versions.

Clyde Water

A track taken from the 2015 album "North Light", the words of Rudyard Kipling put to music by Peter Bellamy.

The Way Through the Woods

West Yorkshire-based musician focused mainly on traditional folk song.
