What's wrong with frilly dresses? I like frilly dresses. In fact, if I were a folk singer I'd wear frilly dresses, or possibly a pencil skirt, 6 inch healed patent leather shoes & a twin-set, or maybe a swimsuit and snorkle; & d**n those who'd stop me, by Jove.

People do buy books by the cover (well I'm a sucker for a nicely designed print) and, just as the cover of a book is supposed to be a representation of the contents, giving you an idea of whether you'll like what lies with-in, surely the Unthank's music and sense of style come from the same place, their creativity, rather than their style being informed by their marketing team. Or maybe they just like frilly dresses.

At least they've made a sartorial effort; many's the time I've wished I could cut the pony tale off an aging singer-songwriter and replaced his Steeleye Span tee-shirt with a nice-shirt-and-tank-top combo.
