Here BBT tell stories from the oceans and the skies, from the meadowland and the mead hall - tales of scientists, artists, poets and dreamers!
Featuring eight songs drawn from history and folklore, ‘Grimspound’ is bold and fresh, with vocalist David Longdon saying BBT have progressed the band’s sound on the album.
He reiterates: “’Grimspound’ has followed on very swiftly from: ‘Folklore’. We found ourselves with a wealth of new material and, with writing input from Danny, Rachel and Rikard, we have been able to move the band’s sound forward while building on all we have learnt over the last few years. We are determined to work hard and, as they say, make hay while the sun shines.”
Bassist Greg Spawton adds: “There is some complex music on this album, with extended instrumental sections alongside vocal passages We had a lot of fun making the album and have pushed ourselves as progressive rock bands should.”
Judy Dyble adds vocals to a song concerning the reported sightings of a ghostly apparition beside the cemetery gates in a quiet English village. Longdon adds: “It’s the first time we have brought a non-band member into sing with us. It’s good to try new things so that we are not simply resting on our laurels. Nick and Rachel also sing some lead parts on this album, further adding to the mix of sounds and voices."
