Really liking the atmosphere in this, and the almost ethereal vocals. (^_^)

@st-manuel: I'm so pleased you like it enough to give it another whirl!  Thanks so much, Steven! :)

@st-manuel: Gauging by my response, it was surely lovely as the comment you've left as your current self!  Hugely appreciated, Steven! :)

@st-manuel: So glad you think so - I kinda wanted to create the circle - back to where it started, kinda thing? :)

@steven-manuel: Thank you so much, Steven! :)

@steven-manuel: I'm thrilled to bits you think so!  Thank you muchly for giving it a listen - it's hugely appreciated! :)

beautiful and dark. A piece of England in my living room

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...

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!

Cider Song (Breton trad arr Kim Guy)

A cover version of the Waterson's song 'The Scarecrow' from their album 'Bright Phoebus'.

The Scarecrow (L&M Waterson)

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! :)

The Snow It Melts The Soonest (Trad. arr. Kim Guy)

Listen with your heart
Listen to your feelings
That could be a very good 
way toward healing
Livin' in your brain
Can be overrated
It can make you old and jaded

Wonder with your eyes
Gazing all around you
Take in the surprise 
of the one who found you
Aim towards the skies
Rise up from the ground you
made a very good start 
Now let life astound you

Whootndoot

Old pathways lead to nowhere
Old patterns are unscrambled
The past is gone, just left where
So much of everything got mishandled

Never buy the lie
That everything is separate
Take heed of the cries
Of the lost and desperate
Moving through this life
Find a deep affection
Got to line up right
In time for the connection

Die Schimmi Schwingers:
Die Karl Grass Companie hat dabei den Chor gesungen
Maya Demarle die zweite Stimme 
und 2 TänzerInnen die uns den Schimmi Schwung dazu gelernt haben
Lyrics in English:
In spring I put the seeds in the ground 
In summer I watch them grow bigger and bigger.

Refrain: 
I don't have any money in the bag 
But the earth gives me a good feeling

And then I immediately feel like a Rasta
The head in the grass and without Zasta

Jah love i sing like a Rasta 
Jah love is more beautiful than the Zasta
- 
In autumn I harvest the fruits of my effort. 
In winter I feast on the taste of the flowers

Refrain: 

A friend knows a place where there are many mushrooms. 
We chunk of a few and we're already home

Refrain:

The trees and the flowers guide us by the hand
An ant introduces us to an earthworm

Refrain: 2x

Amongst Ruins

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

If I Needed You (Townes Van Zandt)

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.
