— Ballads & Broadsides from the Radical North West —

Reviews

Here’s what the critics have said

“This terrific album smoulders with the anger Peterloo still evokes… these three fine singers are all on good form, doing full justice to material you need to hear… a burning, urgent and necessary album”
Folk London

“These songs may be 200 years old, but they still have the power to shock, amuse and inspire, especially when handled as empathetically and powerfully as by this trio of musicians. This could have been merely a worthy, interesting, informative historic document. Instead, it is all those things, but more importantly it is a great album and one you’ll want to hear again and again, as I did.”
Tykes News

“An ambitious and stirring undertaking that shines an uncompromising light on a still under-represented part of the people’s history.”
Songlines

“This CD quite simply is a labour of love for all three participants and they pull it off superbly, adapting tunes to fit the words and delivering the story as it was meant to be told.”
