Two wonderful alt-folk and trad folk releases that Iβve mastered here recently. First up is βThe Frog, The Mouse, The Ship, The Cabin Boyβ by @bitybooker.bsky.social which is something else. And second is the superb compilation βSing Yonder 2β curated by @karlsinfield.bsky.social. Big recommends.

Rather handsome book and CD set of Sing Yonder 2, bearing an illustration of an aloof frog. They are set artistically upon a stone path strewn with dried leaves. It's art, trust me.
The CDs have arrived! Copies going out to paid subscribers today, then I will work through the preorders tomorrow. Thank you all for your support.

New episode out now!
S3/E6 - Roud 26: THE CRUEL BROTHER
Historical guest: Martin Nail
Singer guest: Sophie Crawford
Martin Nail is a London based singer, and anglo-concertina player, who works part time for the EFDSS as a cataloguer/archivist.
Available from wherever you get your podcasts.
My day-to-day work is highly contingent on Internet Archive existing.
As a researcher of cross-cultural anthropology, huge amounts of texts and books would be otherwise entirely inaccessible to me.
Itβs a treasure trove of all but forgotten documents.
If you ever need a bookmark, I have several going spare. π
