Book One by Mary Hampton

I put these songs together in Brighton back in 2005. Some are traditional, some original. Their performance is a bit raw and rattly, which I hope you'll forgive, but that is mostly how I like music to be. On some of them, I also had the privilege of playing with a few musician friends of great talent and perception, as you will hear... Each of the six songs examines a different aspect of the central theme of 'refusal'.

Mary makes songs and music and has performed for audiences great and small across the UK, mainland Europe, America and beyond.
Her influences include: Baudelaire, The Muppets, Anne Briggs, J.S. Bach, Bob Dylan, the old songs +++
