oxbow lake

touched to hear so many good words said about the man. as we're reminiscing - I've seen him a few times since the 80's but remember the impact he had from sitting on the edge of the stage at the music hall (mid 90's maybe, they all merge into one) unassuming while his band kick off, smiling at the audience before he gets up and cranks off. as was said a flawed but great song writer. Lady day and john coltrane playing at the jazz cafe. all getting heavy play at the mo......

The Oxbow Lake | Free Music, Tour Dates, Photos, Videos We're trying out drummers/percussionists for the band. All talents will be considered, especially looking for someone individual or funky as hell or can swing or can drink a lot. back to rehearsing at captain toms from the 9th june. so easy to come have a wee go and see how we get on. single coming out in sept. album aftet that. all drum recording finished. rehearse most weeks in evening. gigging is seasonal or to support releases etc. but usually once a month and then fests etc in summer. email oxbow.lake@btinternet.com

Heh. Looks fine to me. if we could find time to try out oxbow.lake@btinternet.com. no probs if it sells. cheers

great bands/collaborations supporting getting martin ford elected playing are:- simon galls latin/world band el cuartetico the oxbow lake The Oxbow Lake | Free Music, Tour Dates, Photos, Videos them pesky badgers with fred from the brouges atlantic avenue - slick soul

village sunsets village sunsets | Free Music, Tour Dates, Photos, Videos has used collieston hall, newburgh hall and udny arms hotel. these small venue's in villages are some of the best gigs i've been to when packed, everyone up dancing type of thing. but numbers vary radically from packed out to not! depending on who fell out with who and if a load of 'outsiders' come!! so not doing many now. village sunsets is about bringing music to the doorsteps of folk in north aberdeenshire. grass roots. unfortunately we've not used enough local acts as a lot come from spots at festivals etc and global world roots (so lots of american and african type thing) to get folk up dancing. but paddy rasta, aka ska, the lorelei and gerry jablonski were ace!

Hit me with a lick onetime stick This is still an open enquiry. If you just wanna come along and have a try out were always recording or rehearsing at captain tom's so we cab easily make a slot for a chat and a jam. Cheers

Bad sound does spiral the gig downwards especially with thx time changes when your feeling as miserable as I was. So apologies for being a miserable ....But it's strange I have to be honest I just didn't enjoy playing which is rare for me but probably as I was getting over a virus but then I go and listen to the video's and it sounds fine and kind of fun. A good bunch of folk. Perceptions eh!? We all have them. Maybe we should keep them more to ourselves. As Although we had a laugh playing trad and folkie stuff that was just for fun the weird funky stuff I prefer by far but others think the other way. Like I prefer the melodic stuff seas, starry do. Really enjoyed those tunes. Stretch them out longer guys!! And Alan it sounded fine to me as I was standing right beside you. You didn't need a pa!! Cheers and thanks. May you be blessed with many more gigs! Perceptions eh!?

Fancy joinIng the oxbow lake please email oxbow.lake@btinternet.com Finishing off album. Gigging heavy and promo after that. Need someone reliable, committed and most importantly inventive and experimental. We use lots of diff ryhtmns from funk hip hop reggae Latin plus the usual blues rock soul etc Cheers Andy

Bog off nick I was going to see if they wanted to join the orchestra!! Be good to have more song writers

Jan I'd love a copy. Going to Skye this weekend great driving music. Can I download? Email if I can. Cheers. Wasn't feeling right at all last night but regard less got a lot out of it. Cheers

Come along just to hear this loop we came up with last night at toms using marimba and an erm.... Organ. Like something you'd hear late at night at a festival from the rave tent...Mixing with Yeats isle in the water. Funky paddy rock

Oh and I love the new look lorelei photo. Beefy looks good with the curls gone.

I was gonna offer you a sale there until I thought of getting residue of your washed y's under my finger nails.....

I'm away to look for one of thon washboards that you can hang round your next and percuse' Mama rosin had one last week it's the business

Mind the boy is it dod (?) from thon punk band (name?) who used to busk with the pipes. I thought he was great. Bondage trousers eye liner and pipes. Saw him at one of our gigs while back. Is he still doing it?

Great band. Good time music. More of that please. Away to buy a wash board!

I've only ever busked twice and it was recently. I just had to give it a go as you do. Both times after very drunken drummonds gig. Just up on union street. Daryl with his accordion and me on guitar. Jesus the crazy ass folk that come by. Talk madness and dance aboot. An eye opener. And yes we were probably just as bad being bleezin' Acid must be given out free in the local night clubs.

Well done on the gig mr. Fox. Nerves soon go and drunkeness takes over!! I'll be in touch with demo.

It will be ballsy as were doing the same. And with it being so warm in there the crowd better stand well back. Wax booked for the Friday

Why do we potray Christ like ourselves and they do in thon mag is it the bell tower or is that Plath? Anyway I.e. White dude with blonde beard?? Also discuss rebirth I.e. Some religiong believe Buddha Jesus mohhammad and selassie are all the same rebirth. That ll take up a few hours and cups of tea insist they bring cake

we're going back to the dark past with elements of soundscapes, trad and folk. if you know us from our heavy jazz/funk live shows this will be very different. just 2 of us and a loop pedal.

Great gig to put on. Will try and get there Bienvenue de louisiane Internet radio for anyone who wants a dose of cajon

Alan the 'thing' photo'd looks just like one the orchestra had a hold of but was a cello with the horn (?) and I'm going to ask the guy who had it from a house cleared where all his instruments went. As he picked up a few. If I discover any similar I'll email. I want that a bigger auto harp with more than 8 chords!
