The Christmas album I made with Jackie Oates has been released today. A mix of traditional carols, wassails and seasonal dance tunes played entirely by us on melodeon, concertina, fiddle, recorders, claviola, cajon, tambourine and fake Morris dancer. jackieoatesandjohnspiers.bandcamp.com/album/a-midwin…

Ｌｕｎａｔｒａｋｔｏｒｓ Jackie Oates The majority of it was recorded by Stuart Jones at Woodworm studios … mixing was a bit of a long winded process which began with us trying to be our own producers … and finished off with it being rescued by a remix by Josh Clark who also re-recorded some vocals.

🚪Tradvent Calendar Day 2🎁 It's Jackie Oates and John Spiers with a lovely and unfamiliar fourteenth-century carol, paired with a crunchy Breton mazurka: jackieoatesandjohnspiers.bandcamp.com/track/as-i-lay…

IMPORTANT: Tonights gig at Wychwood Folk & Acoustic Club, has had to be postponed due to a power cut. So sorry to everyone who has bought tickets. We are looking to reschedule sometime next week or the week after Jackie and John

A ***** five star review in Folk Wales!!! “A Midwinter’s Night is an utterly heartwarming and entrancing album; it’s a joyous celebration of the festive season and the New Year, a festival of light to cheer us and help us through the colder dark days” folk.wales/magazine/?p=30…

Another very nice review: “If you’re seeking music that beautifully honours the traditions of this season, look no further than Jackie Oates & John Spiers’ “A Midwinter’s Night”, in which they carry these cherished traditions with inspiring grace” klofmag.com/2024/12/jackie…

It’s beginning to look a bit like Christmas… #livemusic #folk #christmas
