Bridget Hayden & The Apparations. A great name for a band. Cold Blows The Rain, s great name for a record. The kind of New Folk / Old Folk albums that's been back in vogue with an enormous vengeance these last few years.It's the end of the world as we know it. And we feel fine.
It's hardly celebratory stuff for the most part. Folk certainly can be if we're talking dancing round the maypole fare on the first Saturday of the month of May. But as we've just got beyond the midway poinr of Janiary and the Post Christmas blues may not all have departed quite yet Cold Blows The Rain, ticks my boxes with the sun yet ro show signs of itsclimb outside m dsek at the window of my flat.
A mix of traditionals and originals in the grand tradition. This grounds itself on the Yorkshire Moors and is appropriately foreboding and atmospheric. Album of the month for January in Uncut Magazine. And not without reason.
