about
Don’t You Go A Rushing Maids In May
Searching the boundless online archive on the EFDSS website I discovered this song collected by Cecil Sharp from Mrs Eliza Ware at Over Stowey, Somerset on 23 January in 1907. Variants of this song have long been twinned with parts of a ballad known as ‘Riddle Song’. However, only in this version have I found the magnificent line ‘when the babe’s in the making there’s no squalling’. People who sing traditional songs are at times more than familiar with processes of research, digging around archives and books, changing tunes and taking of verses here and there to make a song feel right. This was one of those times when on finding a new song everything about it was right and perfect to sing as it is. I love it when that happens.

Alt/Psych/Wyrd folk release from the UK’s Kerry Andrew. Crystal clear vocals, with keyboards, recorder, pipes, cello, bass and electric guitars, banjolele, trumpet, and various percussive elements. Here, they cover traditional tunes, as well as offering original pieces, with a watery theme. Eerie and evocative, the pieces often start simply and veer off into something else entirely.
