Cockney Forester
April 26 saw us performing on Radio Winchcombe again on Kevin O's Folk Collective Show
below are the clips . Kevin said he had really enjoyed what we did and took us for drink in the local pub. Good on yer Kev a really nice bloke.
​
This is Zider Drinking Man a song about Forest of Dean Cider but before we sing it Kevin goes over the results of his quiz that we did very well in 9 out of 10
​
This is Passarinhos a song about birds in Portugal and features kevin playing the bird whistle after which the song is named
​
This is Walking on leaves a song written about Soudley Ponds a Forest of Dean Beauty Spot .
There is a slight sound malfunction at the beginning but persevere and you will hear the song
​
Our latest song "Walking Through Leaves" attracted quite a bit of local interest . The Forester newspaper
put a little insert in about us . Its was nice to see.
​
We played live on the Kevin O radio show on radio Winchcombe on 15th November 2023. Kevin made a video of some of our performance . He said "thank you so much for giving your time I really enjoyed my hour with you " The first is called "When I see Martin Smile" about our encounter with a seriously disabled man with whom we could communicate by banjo. The second is the Dawn Chorus about birds we see in the Forest of Dean
