I am a songwriter and founder member of the Sligo band Those Nervous Animals. These days I run the Knock Records label. I have been privileged to work with some very fine singers and players across the years.  I love to collaborate and try out fresh ideas.  Bedlam Suitcase was a recent project with Tara Baoth Mooney and Tom Jamieson.  Most recently Tom and I joined with Susan Rowland on the Mrs Shop project, and are currently assembling an album of original songs.

SELK, are the alt-folk ensemble spearheaded by lead vocalist/songwriter Anna Jordan. Album ‘Shed The Skin’, released in June 2023 is SELK's most personal and accomplished work to date. The record moves is a stunning showcase of SELK’s unique style and talent, as it moves between full band intricate arrangements, to minimal evocative pieces stripping the sound back to it’s bare bones featuring only Anna on piano/guitar/loops with strings, or bass.

Their sound weaves between genres, drawing on jazz, classical, electronica, avant-folk, ambient rock, classical and more. SELK’s otherworldly sound juxtaposes Jordan’s stark, emotionally raw lyrics and hypnotic acoustic with percussive grooves from Cassidy and the band.

The group’s expanded line-up, now also featuring Barry Brady on guitar and Dave Redmond on bass, has added a powerful rhythm section that has transformed their sound since their debut album ‘Beast’, which was recorded as a duo (Anna Jordan and Dennis Cassidy). The album also features stunning string arrangements performed by cellist Kate Ellis and violinist Cora Venus Lunny (Crash Ensemble) scored by Judith Ring.

“The variety and beauty of ‘Shed the Skin’ cannot be understated… Deftly original, winsome
and thoughtful music.” – The Goo

Hailing from the great state of North Carolina, Ellis Dyson & The Shambles are blazing a new trail in traditional Appalachian music with their foot-stompin’, jazz-	infused whiskey folk. Known for their explosive live shows and thrilling musicianship, the Shambles are sure to make it feel like you've been transported to a different time.

It all started when a young Ellis Dyson (banjo, vocals) came to see a jazz concert at UNC. It was on that fateful day that our Southern hero met a New Yorker named Danny Abrams (saxophone). They took this Northern and Southern fusion to the streets in town, playing some of Ellis’ earliest compositions. The band grew one by one, with the blistering speed and jazz prowess of Nathan Huvard (acoustic guitar), the steady thunder and Nashville flair of Ford Garrard (bass fiddle), the fierce growl of the fiery Matt Hall (trumpet), and the dazzling dexterity of Jonathan Ng (fiddle).

The Shambles have taken their traveling circus all throughout North Carolina, from the late night stage at Shakori Hills Music Festival to the Cat’s Cradle Back Room in Carrboro and The Pourhouse in Raleigh.
