The singing loins @ the rose and crown walthamstow

Punk meets folk. Lively guest band at this quirky full to capacity folk open mike night. 7/10.

The loins using folk instruments - mandolin, squeeze box, banjo, double bass, acoustic guitar, tambourine and scissors (yes scissors) create a folky sound with traces of hank wangford, ian drury and the pogues. The song about the demise of paper silhouette cutters in the face of modern photography was my highlight.

The rose and crown appear (it
was my first visit) to be committed to developing live entertainment. Good for them.
