about

One hundred years ago Walter J.C. Murray rented a derelict house in the Sussex countryside with the aim of making a living collecting herbs. His year is described in the wonderful book, COPSFORD. On this anniversary I have released an album of music inspired by the book, working with a number of friends.

A cassette release is available from: warmnoiserecords.bandcamp.com/album/copsford

COPSFORD is recommended by Bob Fischer, in his 'Haunted Generation' column in the Fortean Times, and 'Midsummer' has been played by Stuart Maconie on The Freak Zone on BBC Radio Six.
