Our Song of the Day is a special video premiere from Brooklyn duo Mark Rogers & Mary Byrne. A Racing Heart is their first official video which was filmed by Chris Carlone. The track features on their debut album I Line My Days Along Your Weight. The live video is testament to the skill and the beautiful intimacy of this duo who display a great chemistry together. They are also certainly not afraid to push themselves as they did on their debut, opting to record to two-inch analog tape, the studio equivalent of tightrope-walking without a net.
They make their England debut at the Gate to Southwell Folk Festival (June 4-7, with Billy Bragg, Chris Wood, Martin Simpson, Clannad), with a UK tour to follow. Dates below:
