Dennis Homes said that he wished we'd been around the folk clubs in the early nineties. Could this mean that we might have been retired by now? We headlined at Fab Club's christmas party on December 17th. On the bill was our tribute band.See elswhere for a bigger picture,if you dare!

Bob Kenward has pointed out that the Woodshed sesions in The Wrotham Arms during the Broadstairs festival won't start until later, as Jen has bands booked in at lunchtimes. I'll keep you posted.

ABOUT T.D.L.

We've been together since May 2005. When we started out we had a handful of songs- mainly  other people's. We then brought some of Trevor's works into the act, then we started writing together. We may be noted for our wacky sense of humour, but we do come up with some more serious stuff now and again. We are endeavouring to learn more traditional songs, continuing the folk process by searching out long forgotton ballads from Buchan's text , and Child Ballads, and setting nineteenth century poems to music. (Some of the tunes have a calypso rhythm, it seems to work.)   Our cubs have now cut their performing teeth, and have been joining us for a song or two. We are now ready, willing, and able to offer our services to any club, or festival that fancy booking us. Singing with or without our trusty instruments, guitar,mandolin banjo, bodhrun, bongos, djembe, and various shaky and scratchy things, we can provide a varied evening's entertainment at a very reasonable price. We aim to lay down a couple more cd tracks soon. There is no shortage of material, it's just finding the time.

Managed to get 4x4 laid down, though it needs  some further embellishment.

Phew!!!! ... All 8 tracks recorded, and put onto  little silver discs. Sleeve notes written by our good friend, John Barden, cover designed by James Leopard, a veritable snip at £6.00!

The recording escapes into an unsuspecting world in early April.  Be Very Afraid!!!!

James, and brother Ben have both recently taken up guitar, and occasionally join us, when we become "Lepe Of Leopards." Lepe is the collective noun for leopards and can be spelled, lepe, leep, or leap. All three are correct.
