Let's do this. Looking for some far out versions, so if you or any of your friends that are in prog math-punk, acid skiffle or transglobal space-funk bands, we need to hear their takes on this!

We go again. Once again the stars fell into alignment and there's a mind-blowingly great line-up for Sing Yonder 2: the Album. Some of my absolutely favourite musicians, and humans, are on board. Join us!

The latest song is Waly Waly, a welcome break from all the Border reiver shenanigans that have been the prevailing theme for the last 10-ish Roud index entries.

Spoiler: it was Steve Roud, in the library, with a mislabelled index card.

New kids range of merch now available. Because every child wants to be seen wearing something that wasn't even fashionable 200 years ago. Garments also available for adults who are still deciding what they want to be when they grow up. merch.singyonder.co.uk/colle…

Latest entry, in which I muse on the Magical Soporific Harp trope, discover a Russian Irish folk band, and needlessly amuse myself by coining the neologism "klepto-ballad".

Compilation update - everyone is very busy at the moment, including me, so I'm extending the deadline for the entries. Got a couple of crackers so far though, and the other nine recordings are sounding *amazing* - so get on board. Can't wait to hear what you come up with.

We're back at the lovely Strines Nightingale on Thursday, and this time there's even more reason to come: free veggie scran! Should be a fun night. Be great to see you there.
Lovely pub with musicians providing top class entertainment for free.

We are having a tune and a song at the lovely Oddfellows pub in Mellor, near Marple, on Thursday night. The food is absolutely banging, so why not have some dinner then stay for the free live music? 🍔🎶🕺

Gorgeous night at the small but perfectly formed @cafehash9. A full house of warm, passionate listeners (incl. @SingYonderFolk 😘). Shows like this make us fall in love with performing all over again. Fancy seeing us live? We're on tour! lunatraktors.space/events

Shout it from the rooftops, the beaches, and any social media platform, no matter how tainted. Multiculturalism works. Diversity is strength. Racist cowards won't win. ✊
