Yakka Doon Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK
Former drug dealer seeks redemption through folk music.
Oak-aged heartcraft from the pitscarred heathland of County Durham. Starkfelt sketchings of lifespaces through flat vowels and strictly necessary guitar-bedding.

A Tarot Of The Green Wood
by Burd Ellen
supported by 12 fans who also own “I Lay Down”
Glaswegian duo Burd Ellen base most of this release (save the final track) on traditional songs, intertwined with ruminations on the Major Arcana of the Tarot. This is very Celtic-inspired, with pipes, keyboards, and a male guest vocalist. Debbie Armour handles vocals throughout, and Gayle Brogan constitutes “all other sounds.” They create an ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere, full of enchantment.
