Description: I heard it. Got straight into the studio. Here you go...

One of my favorite songs, beautiful voice Kim Guy.  Perfect for my Sunday afternoon.

This is a seriously great song/awesome voice Kim~~~It is a quiet yet haunting song with great piano music driving it.  Thank you for sharing!

i've heard  townes covered  a few times and will definitely have to check him out now... :)

@mister-t-11: I'm so pleased!  Thanks so much - as for the 'escaping attention' thing - there's SOOOO much music to be heard (as well as all those pesky 'life' things like hoovering that need doing). I'm just glad you found it! Hugely appreciated, Theo! :)

this is real awesome Kim...guestt I had to look in the right place...the other one I did listen and fav a waus back <3

there is an excellent documentary by the same name on Townes that if you are a fan will help you to truly appreciate this singer songwriter Kim. :)

A collation of some of my more folk-leaning musical adventures, with the occasional folky collaboration thrown in for good measure :)

Folk - Old & Less So...

Wild Nights (orig. Van Morrison)

This is a Breton song, a tune that never got anything done with it. A Corncrow outtake,.
 Until yesterday it existed as a guide guitar track that I recorded, and some bouzouki played by my erstwhile bandmate.
I stuck some recorder and drums on it.  

Enjoy - with or without cider!

Black Magic Woman -Gypsy Queen

The heavy frost in the air is so redolent of snow, and only enhances the need to snuggle.  Here is my take on an old trad tune I heard when watching a marvellous adaption of a book from a favourite author of mine - Thomas Hardy,
Enjoy! :)

https://soundcloud.com/the-river-has-many-voices posted his wonderful demo a few days back and I was cheeky enough to ask if I could add a harmony.  He was kind enough to say yes.

The Water Is Wide

I am a singer and multi-instrumentalist. My initial incarnation was as a           wyrd/psych-folk singer-musician, and saw my debut solo album, Wednesday’s Child, released in  2010. Subsequent (unreleased) solo albums include self-penned material alongside an eclectic mix of covers from various genres. 

I have gigged and/or recorded with Elowen, The Rowan Amber Mill (album releases include 'Midsummers', 'Heartwood' and 'Folk Devils and Moral Panics' ) Corncrow (album releases include 'Sweet Nightingale' and 'So Brightly Shining') The Atwood Machine, Mats Bergman's 'Burnt More Bridges Than Cross The River Thames' vinyl release, Dead Melodies 'Murken Hollow' and featured on various collaborations; releases including Dark Britannica's We Bring You A King With A Head Of Gold and Rif Mountain's Echoes From The Mountain, all widely available .

The lockdown gave me ample opportunity for music to be made at Wyrd House Studio. Back to my folky roots, and after a 10 year hiatus, The Rowan Amber Mill released a mini-album 'Among the Gorse To Settle Scores', ahead of the full-length 'Golden Strings To Tether The Sun'. Please head over to https://rowanambermill.bandcamp.com/ where you will find this nestling in all the other RAM goodness.
