So, we built your railroad network then when we're finished .........

Doin' Time

Paul offered a couple of chords and a title, next thing you know a song was born. with a title like this it won't have a good ending........
As always recorded live at Hobo Central Studio.

Gallows Tree

When you're drawn to somewhere you would rather be than where you actually are. The essence of Fengrass.

Live Slow  ..Die Old

Banjo In The Hollow

An old folk tune from Scotland (we believe). Found it's way across the Atlantic where it was infused with the American Folk. The Lost Hobos sneaked it back to North Fordham. This is our Fengrass take on it.

Little Maggie

When Paul came back from the 'crossroads' after letting the Devil tune his banjo, he came up with the riff that we wrote this song around.

Hobo Blues

When things are never as bad as they seem it's sometimes difficult to communicate.

Best Seats In Town

Best Seats in Town

A song about the Miner's legal rights dispute in Kentucky in the 30's.  The chorus seems as relevant today as it was then.

Harlan County War

Cover of an Old Crow Medicine Show song. The arrival of the railway practically changed every boatman's way of life on the James River.

Live Slow   ..Die Old

James River Blues

A diity about the insidious drug known as nicotine. The unofficial STOPTOBER anthem. Unfortunately the message does not appear to work as Pete and Chris still smoke like troopers. However Paul has quit , and now consumes several litres of e-liquid a week and will appear agitated if he has not got his vaping dummies within reach.

Madam Nicotine

North Fordham is the epicentre of the Fengrass movement. It's not on any map, it is a state of mind.
