Laylam

Songs From The Shed

Session # 258

There are certain requests to play a session that we find impossible to turn down so when the request for Laylam came through we initially thought, Who ? A little bit of research soon had us replying, When ! 

Laylam, taken from an ancient word which means chorus, are a collaboration between four of the finest award winning ladies in folk. Eliza Carthy, Bella Hardy, Lucy Farrell and Kate Young have formed a veritable supergroup of talent and tradition. Eclectic, electric and mesmerising and I haven't even begun talking about Bella's shoes !
