Where
Are You Going?
Where
Are You Going? is a lyrical set of original songs + four traditional
songs from Mark T.
Many of you will remember Mark as leader of The Brickbats an
esoteric roots band from the eighties and early ninetees who
released three influential albums of global music to critical
acclaim in the arts and roots press.
With this collection Mark returns closer to home will a linked
collection of songs which constantly move backwards and forwards in
time between his teens in 1970's Hereford to today.
The folk, blues and world music influences are still there but have
been woven into a seamless contemporary sound which defies easy
classification but takes you to worlds you may have forgotten
existed.
