I Was A Sailor

Alone and disoriented in the city, our narrator closes his eyes and remembers darkness in the highlands...

Union Street

The Butcher's Wife

Emmeline

This is a recording taken from our 2011 appearance on Subcity Radio with Initial Itch.

Here, Colin - one of the show's presenters - bravely takes on The Worm, and turns in a sterling performance, lending it the feel of a combination between William Burroughs and Garth Marenghi.

As always, improvised soundtrack it provided by The Dead Man's Waltz.

The Worm - Read by Colin Chaloner live on Initital Itch, Subcity Radio

A tale of unrequited love takes a sinister turn, high on the snow covered moor.

A lullaby for the children of the next world

1904

In the aftermath of a brutal knife-fight, a circus performer and his lover flee London and find themselves a 17th century Bonnie and Clyde

Old Man

Memories of the second world war on the Isle of Skye, and of John the Liar.

The Tea Traveller

The last man alive shares his memories and visions from the carriage of a train, lost in the suburbs of Glasgow.

Swings And Roundabouts

The Dead Man's Waltz are four musicians from the Isle of Skye who are re-imagining their traditions into a style they call 'folk-noir'. Their music traces a path through the dance halls of Weimar Republic Germany, Kurt Weill and Hans Eisler, though Tom Waits and the Pogues to more recent acts such as Yann Tiersen and Beirut.

Using song, storytelling and film, their music describes a weird arc of destruction and menace through the history of the last century. Theirs is a litany of small-town crimes and dark romances that is fascinating and irresistable.
