AUTOMATON, MARK - A Peck Of Dirt

The first of a series of NEW releases on the Waterden label, this is Marks first solo CD. Containing his first original writing since leaving the Instant Automatons, it also draws heavily upon a wide variety of sources: here are songs from the English, Irish and Scottish tradition, the Crimean War, the chain-gangs of Americas Deep South and the trenches of World War One, all given the distinctive treatment characteristic of The Automatons best work. - Waterden.
