Having performed this set originally during the Wilfred Owen Festival to commemorate the centenary of WW1 in 2018 they also returned back in September last year performing Tall Tales and Truths on what was a really great night of folk music and storytelling.
The album, War Stories, was released in July, 2016, as part of a project (part-sponsored by Arts Council England and The Western Front Association) to mark the centenary of the First World War. The band performed new material and re-worked traditional songs (which challenged stereotypes of the conflict). The album received outstanding reviews, with the likes of The Observer describing it as “bold and brilliant”. The Armistice Day performance promises to be entertaining, evocative and thought provoking.
