• First LP from The Sprigs - the exploratory folk project of Rory Salter, aka Malvern Brume, Lone Capture Library and co-founder of Infant Tree

Inspired by Kenneth Grahame's 'Wind in the Willows', the sonic endeavours of Mole have so far given us two cassettes (Before I Glare Up At The Sun Through The Top Soil and Mole's Uninvited Guests) and a top class library CD of covers. With ‘For Red Riverbank’, The Sprigs return to bison for their first full length LP, this time joined by Ratty and Badger to form a full three piece band, and to help Mole take on the developers working above ground…

Armed with guitars, pipes, samples and bric-a-brac, it’d be easy for the Sprigs to succumb to a totally romanticised nostalgia for an imagined British folkloric tradition. There’s enough of it going around. Instead, the gang create a ramshackle, ruddy faced blend of introspective hibernation, real-world anxiety and some absolutely knee slapping, joy inducing tunes. It’s a masterwork of folk collage - where beautiful straight-to-tape guitar sketches are cut up amongst British labour history with the help of Leon Rosselson and Ash Reid, giving way to waves of depression and relief in equal measure. Such is life!

Track List:

A1 - come along, back home
A2 - Ratty & the moles get to work
3. Lest limbs be reddened and rent
4. …on the wheels that turn for the profit of the few
B1 - murmurs from the wide world
B2 - For Peace and Mild Ale (with Ash Reid)
B3 - Freedom is the mole who will turn the world upside down
B4 - The Battle for Red Riverbank
