“Rock of eye are Alex Vann (Spiro, Three Cane Whale) on mandolin Ron Phelan (Schmoozenbergs and many others) on double bass and Madame Česki (Paper Cinema, Sam Lee band) on violin. Drawn together through a desire to explore folk music of the British Isles and Europe through improvisation, this trio are creating their own architecture in this genre. Don't expect a slow amble through English folk music. Prepare for an explosive and exhilarating ride from early Italian dance music to forgotten Welsh airs, and everything in-between.”
