may be the present time .....but if you want to recreate the past in music, and want to hear our song heritage at its' finest in perfomance, then Strawhead are the band to listen to.

Songs of sovereigns, songs of war, songs of mystery, and the poor.

Songs of whimsy,songs of note,songs of the people, blue jacket, and red coat.

Songs that are political, songs of heroes bold, songs of wine and women, songs of legends old.

Songs of work and play, songs of just complaints, songs of felons sold, songs of holy saints.

Songs of the wild sea, songs of the quiet land, songs of old England, songs from a far off strand.

Songs.....

Historical themes and projects have, over the years, stamped out the distinctive style of this group who on these occasions are often augmented by vocalist, Alison Younger.

A Strawhead concert is always an event you won't forget with that inimitable Strawhead sound of vocals, guitar and keyboards, with wind instruments including the remarkable 'cornett'.
