First page from my new book I’m working on called My Dream Had No Name. Audio accompaniment provided by myself on the cardboard mountain dulcimer. The song is Happy Land and is a Christian hymn written by the Scotsman Andrew Young in 1838.

Ghana Brass Band
Thanks to Spencer for sending me the photo that inspired this linocut. Audio accompaniment provided by an Ethiopian High Life band. For more great African music head to Awesome Tapes From Africa.
The Antler Attic
Inspired by an actual photograph of an attic full of antlers which I took in Eden, Wyoming. Audio accompaniment provided by myself and Davey on banjo (tuned down to a low D Dock Boggs tuning) and guitar (respectively). It is an instrumental interpretation of Ed Sturgill’s song ’31 Depression Blues (famously covered by the New Lost City Ramblers).
The A.L. Lloyd Treehouse
A. L. Lloyd or Bert Lloyd, was an English folk singer and collector of folk songs, and was a key figure in the folk music revival of the 1950s and 1960s. Lloyd was sent to Australia as a youth and began collecting folk songs while there. Lloyd was a communist and pioneer in the field of collecting and recording “Industrial Folk Music”. You can download a great album of his here. Audio accompaniment provided by the 70’s Norwegian folk rock band Folque.
