Mike Heron & The Trembling Bells Tonight at the H&H

Following two sold out shows at the Kitchen Garden Café  Trembling Bells with Mike Heron (Incredible String Band) will be bringing their The Circle Is Unbroken show to the Hare & Hounds tonight.

To coincide with Hux Records’ release of Incredible String Band ‘Live at Fillmore East, 1968’ album, original ISB band member, Mike Heron is teaming up with Trembling Bells (Honest Jon’s) to perform classic String Band material from their hugely influential first four albums.
Few bands could be said to embody the spirit of the 1960s more comprehensively than the Incredible String Band. On albums such as ‘The Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter’ or ‘Wee Tam and the Big Huge’- with their epic perspectives, pantheistic lyrics and visionary synthesis of musical forms- ISB gave the hippy generation some of their most emblematic anthems. The breadth of their appeal is beguiling, with admirers as diverse as Robert Plant (Led Zepplin) and Rowan Williams (Archbishop of Canterbury) professing a long term love affair with the band. In 2010 Fledg’ling reissued their first 4 albums to unanimous critical acclaim, ensuring their appeal to successive generations of fans. One of the new generations of bands indelibly influenced by ISB is the Glasgow based 4 piece Trembling Bells. Check out the video for their single ‘Wide Majestic Aire’ below:
