Hello to all.

Just a quick note to let you know that our new CD, "The Fiddleship" is now available for pre-order (delivery expected June 8). For a track-list and ordering, check out our website, and follow the link to "our music". It features Vicki Swan and Jonny Dyer on a couple of tracks and we'll be getting together with them at Alcester and Arden if you'd like a live sample.

Folks, preorder - you will not regret it, this album is worth it!
I heard the pre-manufacturing version, and it is a real cracker of an album. If you liked the first two Cloudstreet albums, then you won't be able to stop playing this. It really is their best so far.

Jonny's and Vicki's collaboration is coming clear through - there are some wonderful instrumental passages and bass lines to die for and Vicki's smallpipes somehow challenge Nicole's flute to even grater heights. Jonny's guitar - what can I say, he's a "bastard" in the nicest possible sense of the word. The arrangements are if anything even more daring than usual, and they work brilliantly. From the opening title song, "Fiddleship", with its tempo and time signature changes, you KNOW you have something special in your CD player.

Plus - this is a true Mudcat album, if there ever was one, with at least five Mudcatters involved, in one way or another.

Buy and you won't regret.

"Greater heights", not "grater", you plonker!

I am looking forward to the new album. Got both of the others and enjoyed them

If you get the chance to see Cloudstreet live, take it. Well worth seeing.
