We have a great song premiere today from Ray Hughes and Sian Chandler, a Gloucestershire based Americana / Folk music duo better known as The Black Feathers. Down By The River is their brand new single due out on December 4th, taken from their eagerly anticipated debut album Soaked To The Bone, due for release Feb, 2016.
Their debut EP Strangers We Meet, released last year, achieved outstanding reviews and also gained national airplay (BBC Radio 2) as well as the band featuring in The Sunday Times Culture magazine. The Telegraph Online also listed it as one of the best records of 2014.
They will be touring the UK in November (full tour dates below), kicking things off in their hometown at The Barn Theatre in Cirencester on Sunday 1st November 2015.
They are also in the final stages of releasing their debut album Soaked To The Bone with just the songs now to be mixed and mastered, and the physical copies manufactured. To help them get there you can pre-order their album via Pledge Music (only two days left!) as well as other goodies. Head here to find out more: www.pledgemusic.com/projects/soakedtothebone
