This track is inspired by a dream I had where I died in a plane crash. "Odyssey" comes from the travels of Ulysse - his fear of never coming back home & never reaching his ambitions. It's a track about deception and the fear of death, the fear of never accomplishing your goals.

HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING ABOUT BUFFALO KILLERS' OHIO GRASS:

Buffalo Killers have nailed it with their latest release, "Ohio Grass" -  a tasty six-song nugget that shows the band still growing, and still mining the deep roots of their rich musical heritage, while also expanding their horizons with side dishes of Beatlesesque pop, and some Jamaican flavor added to the mix. - ROCK GUITAR DAILY

Effectively drawing from early ’70s touchstones like the psychedelic blues-rock of Mountain and the power-pop of Big Star, Buffalo Killers’ "Ohio Grass" is undeniably intoxicating. - DAYTON DAILY NEWS

Buffalo Killers' deft blend of vintage Psych Pop and swampy Blues Rock is certainly THC-friendly. - CINCINNATI CITY BEAT

"Ohio Grass" is a six cut Record Store Day release that carries on where Buffalo Killers' last record ("Dig. Sow. Love. Grow.") left off, which means it is pretty damn righteous. This is the rock you've been looking for.  - AUDIOFILE REVIEW

Buffalo Killers have been perfecting their warm classic rock sound over their last several albums which hit a high point on last summer’s fourth full length "Dig. Sow. Love. Grow." The band quickly returns here with this six song EP, "Ohio Grass," that shows that they have not lost one step and once again showcases their confident songwriting, playing and memorable melodies. - THE FIRE NOTE

lyrics:

why would i need a shovel in my hand?
what's here to dig man? my own grave?
i don't need your haircut
i don't need your shave

why would i need money in your bank?
what's here to pay man? my own bone?
i don't need your palace
i don't need your throne

say, why would i need your whip to lick my back?
what's here to sweat for? a bed and bread?
since i know you
i've got the rats in my shed

i won't bow, i won't beg
to your lack of respect
the big desert you spread
in my head
i won't beg, i won't bow
to your glamour and your show
the big mountains you pull
in front of my window
let my people go

let 'em go
let 'em go
let my people go!

why would i need your words to cut my tongue?
what's here to speak bout? that's your lie!
i won't greet you 
i won't wave goodbye

why would i need your rifle in my hand?
what's here to fight for? that's my land!
i don't trust you
i don't shake your hand

you're not what i'd call a friend
a friend won't spill no tear
and a friend does not appear
in all this army gear

is that what you call kind?
kind men don't act like rats
kind men don't hang out 
with the bats

i won't beg, i won't bow
cause no justice and no law
will stop this river of blood
that just reached my doorstep
let my people go

let 'em go
let 'em go
let my people go!

Lucy Ward - Marching Through The Green Grass


Pete Flood of Bellowhead offers up an ingenious reworking of the title track from Josienne Clarke & Ben Walker's forthcoming 'Fire & Fortune' album.

'Fire & Fortune' is released on Navigator Records on 22nd July 2013.

In a town full of songs and singers, Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker give you the real thing. Both classically trained, their musical proficiency is beyond doubt. But this isn't about technical accomplishment. This is about a song, first and foremost. Whether interpreting words centuries old, or singing her own authentic lyrics, Josienne's jewel-like voice finds the nuance and melancholy in the simplest phrase and effortlessly sends it straight to your heart.
Ben's musical tact and mastery of the guitar provide the perfect setting and allow the song centre-stage.Josienne was born in Sussex and Ben, in Evesham. It was after studying in London, and utterly by chance, that they met in July 2009. They have been working together ever since. Critical acclaim soon followed, along with the Isambard Folk Award and the FATEA award for Female vocalist of the year. Their work together combines an exquisite command of their instruments with lyrics steeped in the tradition of English songwriting, and in ageless stories of love and loss.
Two joint releases later, they've played as a duo alongside many of the living legends including Martin Simpson and Steve Tilston, and have just completed tour dates in Germany, the Netherlands and UK with more planned for 2013.
Navigator Records, home of Bellowhead, Bella Hardy, Heidi Talbot and many other gifted musicians, will be releasing their new album ‘Fire and Fortune’ on 22 July 2013.
Though influenced by greats such as Sandy Denny, Richard and Linda Thompson, Nick Drake, Bert Jansch and June Tabor, ‘Fire and Fortune’ marks two musicians who have resolutely found their own path through traditional English music.
Their new album, ‘Fire and Fortune’ contains twelve tracks, some carefully selected traditional songs re-imagined; others equally carefully picked original compositions. This is timeless stuff, and its purity will stay with you long after the last note fades.

***** - The Observer
**** - The Guardian
"a masterpiece" - folkradio.co.uk
"Long may she sail" **** - Songlines
"one very fine release indeed..." - Fiona Talkington, Late Junction, BBC Radio 3

‘It’s easy to see why this singer is the toast of the folk scene…her vocals, like those of Anne Briggs, come across as strange and stirring as a spring day.’ - The Observer

‘A major discovery’ - Mojo

Lisa Knapp first emerged in 2007 with a remarkable debut album, ‘Wild And Undaunted’ and quickly established herself as a highly distinctive, creative artist, merging a radiant style of traditional folk and self-penned song with vocal, fiddle, hammer dulcimer, strings, banjo and contemporary production. ‘Wild And Undaunted’ won Lisa critical acclaim including BBC Radio 2 Folk Award nominations and Mojo Folk Album of the Year.
 
It’s been a long wait but evidently worth it – the South Londoner’s much anticipated 2nd full length album, Hidden Seam, is finally due for release by Navigator Records on 16th September 2013.
 
Far from idle, Lisa has spent the years between albums exploring ideas connected to the elements and our fragile, volatile environment.  Though greatly inspired by husband/musical partner Gerry Diver’s own creative journey with his 2011 ‘Speech Project’ album (music based on the speech patterns of Irish traditional singers), Lisa was also motivated by her own love of language – partly through a meeting with Seamus Heaney but also an interest in the old English text of Beowulf. 

Shipping Song, the album’s opening track, arises from Lisa’s fascination with the Met Office’s somnambulant, poetic late night shipping forecast ; its strange and far-away sounding place names, Utsire, Viking, Fastnet and Lundy. A recording of American Marine sound testing from the 1950s was seamlessly sewn into the track, alongside the noises of sea creatures and spinning motors. Black Horse is a song by the great, late English singer/songwriter, Lal Waterson, which Lisa was originally invited to perform on tour with Scottish singer and guitarist James Yorkston. Not only does James guest on this recording but Lisa was also thrilled to be joined by Lal’s daughter, Marry Waterson.  Lisa plucked up courage to invite Martin Carthy, one of her musical heroes, to accompany her on Two Ravens, a touching song about Alzheimers disease.   Seagiver is a visceral song of death and the elements. The penultimate track on Hidden Seam, Hunt the Hare Pt 1, features acclaimed Scottish folk musician, Alasdair Roberts and was originally based on the well-known Irish song Rocky Road to Dublin. It evolved into a song (and EP release) about the month of May. On Hushabye, a lullaby style song which she regularly sang to her daughter, Lisa is accompanied by celebrated singer/songwriter, Kathryn Williams.
 
Hidden Seam is a substantial sonic tapestry. It will swiftly re-establish Lisa Knapp as not only one of the most compelling voices of her generation in British folk music but one of the most innovative.  Her roots may be embedded in the great folk revival of the 50’s and 60’s but with this new album, she is setting sail for unchartered horizons.
