Usually I don't take requests for re-posts, but The Unthanks have been on my mind and in my player again recently - their disc "Here's the Tender Coming" was one of the bigger discoveries in the past few months... so here we go again... again: beautiful voices, haunting tunes, great instrumental arrangements... got this one from dime.

I am very (pleasantly) surprised to see this here. I have often wondered about their Scottish connection; Bairns might be a word also used in Northumberland, I don't know, but Unthank is the setting in Alasdair Gray's remarkable Lanark
Thanks yet again, Ubu
Uh-oh... Ubu-posted and Rab-approved. Need to check this. thanks Ubu.
Just saw the Unthanks live last night and had a very enjoyable time. probably would have missed the show had it not been for your little blog, wasn't previously aware of the girls and brit folk isn't my first port of call but was intrigued by your upload. So manythanks for the Unthanks and also the other downloads over time i may have neglected to thank you for.
thanks - steve.
thanks ubu, why looky there, it's granny. great interesting blog.
