The Blacksmith Project
Commissioned by the Old Forge in Hertfordshire, the project looked at the history of blacksmithing, collecting old tales, traditional folk songs and adding new ones, including a specially written electronica piece based on live sound sampling at the forge when it was in full swing.
The grand finale involved two live shows in the grounds of the OLd Forge featuring local a host of musicians. Amongst the new songs created for the project were two of my own – ‘Hammer and Hand’ and ‘Gretna Green’
