Miranda Sykes' singing on 'Everything Possible' is a marvel. She opens up the voice as if entering a new spacious room. @jimcausley.bsky.social's singing is spellbinding, & his accordions, too, have voices, sometimes of a plaintive, almost French elegance. Warmly recommended!

In 'Elegy for Geraint' from @jimcausley.bsky.social 'The Georgic', a Welsh tune of grave beauty accompanies words from the Black Book of Camarthen. Devon's last king falls to the Saxons.... in a tribute sung with great restraint & dignity.

That was an interesting choice for Genevieve to play at this time of year! I always think of it as more of an autumnal song! Thank you for investing in new album with Miranda. I also have my latest songwriting album coming out imminently. Rather like buses!! Huge thanks 🌼

Great to see @jimcausley.bsky.social & Miranda Sykes at St Mary's Creative Space singing new arrangements of their favourite songs by other artists. Some popular classics and some less well known but deserving to be heard
Thanx @sboxmusic.bsky.social for bringing great folk 'n roots music to Chester

'My lady hath her sable coach
With horses two and four
My lady hath her black bloodhounds
That runneth on before..'
Two of my favourite singers! The rich tones of @jimcausley.bsky.social & the pure & strong voice of Miranda Sykes - & perhaps the most terrifying dogs in folksong! #folksong #devon

Bless you Alison for your kind and encouraging words ♥️ some versions of the tale say she had a black dog with one eye that ran on before the coach and others say she herself took the form of a black dog and didn’t need the coach!! Xxx
