They were stupendous last night in Twickenham.

I couldn't have enjoyed it more if it had been Tim O'Brien and Darrell Scott. Mostly original material from the debut and the upcoming albums but also a few traditional and one or two tasteful covers (including Townes Van Zandt's 'Loretta' and Norman Blake's 'Church St Blues')

All sung with great subtlety and executed with immense charm on the four gorgeous hand-made instruments outlined above....though I think Cahalen called it an octave mandola...not a bouzouk! (hey, don't let's open that can of worms again)

They're in Towersey tonight.....see them if you can.
