I sat down to play my cuatro and hum along the chords that came up out of the blue. When i listened to the recording i imagined a female choir joining me on their way back from a drinking party. In the middle of the song they took off. Then an old man came playing the bass. He looked a lot like captain Zeppos, captain of the first boat-car in Flanders.

Hebben we allemaal soms niet nood aan even tussenuit, aan herbronning en eventjes weg van de wereld? Thomas Noël had hetzelfde gevoel. Droom mee met Thomas over eilandleven, werkelijk avontuur en magnifieke sterrenhemels.

Graceland - Tallest Man On Earth (Paul Simon cover)

Avocet’s ethereal vocals, melodious harp, double bass, and intricate guitar will lull you into a deep and blissful state before you even have the chance to say “Isn’t that the name of Bert Jansch’s eponymous 1979 album?” Inspired by both the British folk scene in the 1960’s/70’s, and raw blues, they create their own compositions and explore the boundaries between trad folk and world blues.

Having met through the traditional Scottish music scene at a young age, Glasgow based trio Avocet decided to combine forces. Sam’s finger picking guitar style is indeed reminiscent of Bert Jansch and Ali Farka Touré. Joining him are Herbie on double bass, and Iona, whose harp playing and distinctive vocals are best described as both soothing and haunting.

Following their win at the DK Celtic Connections Festival they signed to Mink Records in 2017, travelling to the Abbey Road Institute Amsterdam to record their debut EP ‘Borrowed Seed’. They have been busy since, with festival performances and gigs across the country including support for Ralph McTell. 

Big thanks to Michiel Mutsaerts for recording, mixing and artwork, Bart Schatteleijn for mastering, Guillermo Almo Martín Viana and Ignacio Santoro for playing with us, and Marieke McKenna for organising everything.
