The Ciderhouse Rebellion with Jessie Summerhayes
The Ciderhouse Rebellion’s third album - a new three way real-time collaboration with wordsmith Jessie Summerhayes that is something wholly new, built upon the foundations of The Ciderhouse Rebellion’s previous work, but with the added intimacy and connection of the human voice.
Jessie’s words are steeped in the same history and folklore that flows through the music of her father, Adam, inhabiting the protagonists and landscape of her beloved North East of England with her fresh and timeless voice. With these meticulously researched poems, drawing on the historical records and literary creations of the early-medieval period — The Magna Carta, the writings of The Venerable Bede, the Norse Sagas — it became clear that this body of evocative work should stand alone, and Words From a Fiddler’s Daughter was born.
