Maybe we'd be higher up the billing if we changed our name to Aaron and the Aardvarks...

After a lengthy break due to health issues, we are now back recording. Here's a short snippet of a work in progress. We hope to be performing live again in a few months. Watch this space. #folkmusic #folk #newmusic #waterboys

“1289 Randy Idiots” should definitely be a song title.

As you may know, we had to cancel our plans for spring/summer 2026 for health reasons. The good news is that Rachel had her heart operation last week and she is now focussing on recovery. We plan to be back in action as soon as we're all fit and well. We'll keep you posted!

The words “Fisherman’s Blues” hang in a stormy sky above the band. Rachel, the singer, holds her hands aloft.

New single out later this month… but what could it be? For a change, it’s not a traditional tune although it’s certainly has a folky feel. #folk #yorkshire

Some great photos taken at our recent concert at St Mary's Church in South Dalton during a fairly dramatic storm. Thanks to everyone who braved the weather to come and listen! #folk #folkmusic #beverley #ukfolk #church

An amazing venue for last nights gig - although incredibly cold, with a storm raging outside. St Mary’s Church, South Dalton, East Riding of Yorkshire #folkmusic #churches #yorkshire

Valid point. If you care about a singer and/or band, get their music from BandCamp - that way they get paid fairly for their work. And if you can’t do that then at least avoid Spotify - worst of the lot! #bandcamp #spotify
