Hudson Records Listening Club – Flook – Ancora
Sunday 5th July – 10.30am
Andy Bell of Hudson Records: We’ve had a couple of weeks rest here at Hudson Records having produced a listening club every Sunday throughout the lockdown. However don’t worry, this Sunday we are back with a bang featuring the self-released album ‘Ancora’ by the incredible band, Flook.
‘Ancora’ was produced by Ed Boyd and Mark Tucker and features Sarah Allen, Brian Finnegan, Ed Boyd and John Joe Kelly.
Taking inspiration from their roots in the Irish and English traditions, Flook have an enviable trademark sound, weaving and spinning traditionally rooted tunes over precise acoustic grooves, with a rare blend of fiery technical brilliance, delicate ensemble interaction and a bold, adventurous musical imagination.
Dave McNally, Folk Radio UK
“Ancora picks up where Flook left off with Haven 14 years ago, delighting us, again, with their unique, exciting sound and their ever-inventive arrangements. Expectations more than fully met – simply a brilliant album.”
Join us to listen to ’Ancora’ in its entirety on Sunday morning with commentary and insights from Flook themselves. Join the guys online to chat and discuss the album throughout the listening club, say hello in the comments area.
