-----WHOM BY FIRE-----
Heavy haunting fairytale blues. Inspired by dreams, Lynch, Herzog, Cobain and Cohen they usher you into a world of dark romantic tragedy.

-----TOM JANSSEN-----
I'm a Welsh bloke with a London accent, a Belgian surname & supplementary Irish ancestry. Listening to people like Martin Carthy, Bert Jansch, Michael Hedges, Bill Frisell, Pierre Bensusan & Leo Kottke made me do it.
'Neals Tune' was featured on both of Tom Robinsons Radio 6 shows and subsequently I was invited to play a 3 tune set live on air on his Tuesday night show. He said 'Brilliant Stuff!"
