The third single from Billy in the Lowground in as many months was released today, they’ve been ploughing their own furrow since 1991, been meaning to mention them, no time like the present….
No Chance for a Slow Dance sees no chance of slowing down for this Bristol folk rock collective, it’s a foot-tappin’ hoedown of Scrumpy & Western incorporating everything awesome with their live show. No doubt this the most up-tempo yet, arguably the best yet.
With comparisons to the Waterboys and the Levellers, there’s a distinctive tone to this six-piece we love ’em for. Earlier this month’s release, Fallen Queen mellows the pace slightly, the first single since summer, So The Story Grows nips that bluegrass twang, and together they make a fine collection, hopefully a new album in the works; please check them out, you’ll be pleased you did.
