Firestations on stage at the Hen & Chicken, Bristol, 10 May 2025.

A dreamily stripped-down yet textured @firestations.bsky.social line-up headed a top-drawer triple-bill in Bristol last night, with strong support coming from Melinda Bronstein’s hypnotic loop manipulations and Andy Skellam’s troubadour intimacy.

Many White Horses is out now :)))

A nine track album, with songs and instrumentals, some quite sad, some less sad and even hopeful!

Release day for this lovely album from @firestations.bsky.social. Super evocative sketches of life at sea, drifting around the Hebrides. Very, very limited vinyl so get in there while you still can.

Live from the garden yesterday, it’s me, Mike, having a little bash at the new song Many White Horses.

Laura and Neil will add all the bells and whistles when we play it live, but this is the bare bones of it as written on a swaying boat last August. Album out this Friday lads! And gigs yeah ;)
