Golly indeed.  But I like it a lot. Nice banjo and abruptness.  The theme to Hitchhikers after ignoring advice about the brown acid.  


The cello on this really stands out...I love the highly built intense parts and then the quieter parts. The banjo sits well amongst it and the mandolin/uke. I love the recorder/flute as well, punctuating the end of the phrases. The abrupt ending with "everything going white" is fab.

Very... King Crimson-ish. Liking it very much.

This is very nice, Wes adds such a well placed banjo here and that guitar tone, is superb, highlighted with the flute, how many of you are there?

Growing up in the English Lake District, Harvey draws on myths and legends, both old and imagined to create modern classic of the alt/psych folk genre. This is storytelling and dreaming told like never before. Brought to life by an eclectic ensemble of players.

The Existence of Harvey Lord is an amorphous psych-folk group based around Lancaster, UK who play songs written and sung by Harvey Lord.
Harvey’s songs have a distinctive lyrical and vocal style, with psychedelic and often existential lyrics being delivered in a broad Kendal accent. Harvey is backed, along with his own guitar playing, by a range of instruments from banjo to flute to violin. This large number of instrumentalists in the band, rather than creating the bombastic, orchestral sound that one might expect, work to create delicate, intertwining lines of simple melody, creating full, shimmering soundscapes that still have space.
'Yoke'-The title of TEOHL's third album marks a slight lyrical and musical shift. This album sees to introduction of old and new Cumbrian folk tales, retold for a contemporary audience. Growing up in the English Lake District, Harvey draws on myths and legends, both old and imagined to create modern classic of the alt/psych folk genre. This is storytelling and dreaming told like never before. Brought to life by an eclectic ensemble of players.
