“If you like The Shaggy Dog Raconteurs you’ll love The Vinyl Remnants, the off-shoot band playing acoustic/electro covers and originals. See them at their launch on May 6th, 2-3pm at The Hog in Horsley http://www.hoghorsley.com/ a brilliant, vibrant village pub celebrating their second beer festival.”

Home-grown Americana from the pedigree kennels of Gloucestershire
The Shaggy Dog Raconteurs are a Gloucestershire based Roots/Country Blues/Americana quartet

They have original melodies to make your grandmother blush and your grandfather whistle.

As a band, we struggled to record and produce the SUMMER SUN song and film through the Covid pandemic. We actually started work on it in April 2020 and finally completed it in December 2020 (just in time for Christmas). We had to work hard and persevere and we think that it has resulted in a wonderful sound. This can be likened to our mental health, as there are times when we need to persevere with that. This is why we have chosen SUNFLOWERS SUICIDE SUPPORT as our chosen charity to benefit from your generosity. There is also the obvious connection of SUNflowers and Summer SUN. As we pass through the deepest, darkest and shortest days of winter, we hope that this song will bring a hope, a nostalgia and a joy of the summers yet to come. Thank you for your generosity. Bill (Billdog) Davies, Matt (Matley) Allen, Brendan (Ole Yella) Conboy and Duncan (Barky) Birch |
