Hunger of the skin

"Only Brian could say if, at the outset, he had any idea what sending out his raw material to musical friends might achieve, but without a doubt, he's been delighted by the result. And not merely in musical terms, in what he describes as "extraordinary times of great reckoning" it became a re-affirmation of the power of friendship and human interaction even if it was necessarily at a distance. With the closing lines of the final track, Dare, the sentiment is spelled out, "Put out your hand. Touch what you love." For Brian, his fretful labours in the wee small hours of his lockdown nights brought him home to his music. With the release of Hunger of the Skin we can all now enjoy the fruits of that journey".

"Although slightly different from his previous releases, Hunger of the Skin represents another milestone in the career of an artist that, both with his solo work and his collaborations with bands such as Flook, Kan or Parallelogram, has always been at the forefront of folk music whilst being one of the most notable ambassadors of the traditional sounds from these isles".
