Melancholy Air Instrumental - Daisy Chute
135 votes

MELANCHOLY AIR INSTRUMENTAL from the EP ‘CRADLE SONGS’ by Daisy Chute "Burns Night is a tradition I hold dear, especially as a displaced Scot in London. But every year we gather and recite the same poetry and songs, and I've often wondered about all the Scottish poetry that gets left unread, especially from the female perspective. I wanted to unearth some lesser known poetry so Cradle Songs are settings of the poems I discovered and connected with on my hunt. The poems are about mourning (Mary Queen of Scots's Melancholy Air), unrequited love (Marion Angus's Mary's Song), and motherhood (Carolina Oliphant's Cradle Song), and span from the 16th to the 20th Century." ‘Cradle Songs’ featuring 'Melancholy Air Instrumental' released 28 January 2022.

Soul Traders Drum - The Day of the Rabblement

Fantastic original folk/country acoustic style song called Soul Traders Drum by The Day of the Rabblement. Recorded live at the Wine Vaults, Southsea and it features on their debut album 'Night Time Rallies'.The Day of the Rabblement used to create amazing folk and acoustic style music including this song but this particular song has a country feel to it as well! The different types of guitars and the lead female vocals by Khaleda make this song really interesting and definitely very folksy!Khaleda Brophy-Harmer- lead vocals and guitarDanny Harmer- accordion and vocalsMac Brown-  lead guitar and vocalsSean Brophy- bass guitar and vocalsRob Purkiss- drums and vocals
