Common Or GardenI've decided to start recording some of my favourite traditional songs and release them into the wild on the first Friday of every month to coincide with Bandcamp Fridays. First up, here's a May song for you!
I first heard, and fell in love with, a relative of this song sung by The Battlefield Band when I was small. This version I learned from the singing of Anne Briggs and I love the defiance of this young girl who seems to refuse to be shamed by the taunting of her father. I'm pleased to add my version to the vast family of songs documenting the "unlikely-things-Sally-had-underneath-her-apron"... 
"Fresh and forthright..." –

Over the past year or so, I've been busy working with my new trio, The Wilderness Yet. We've released an eponymous debut album, hailed by Folk Radio as a"timeless and heady mix of traditions from three musicians at the top of their game"; an EP titled John O'Dreams; and a short seasonal album of folk carols called Turn The Year Round. I'm very proud of all three and I hope that you'll go and have a listen!
