‘Wonderfully inspiring’ Jonathon Porritt
‘Your performance gave me such rare pleasure that I asked the organiser if he had flown you all in from some far-off enchanted region.’ Laurie Lee
Jehanne Mehta’s contemporary English folk songs have inspired generations since the early 1980s, expressing a deep sense of place, legend and season.
Echoing the poetry of John Clare, Robert Frost and R. S. Thomas, Earth Songs is a career-spanning collection of 50 songs for all ages to treasure, with melodies and chords for playing and teaching, and lyrics brought to life by Stu McLellan’s evocative coloured ink drawings.
