Two new songs have been released by local musicians, written and uploaded compositions inspired and created around the current lock down.

The ska and gypsy-folk group The Fecktones celebrated being in the same field together by producing a video for their song ’When We Are Free (A Lockdown Song’.

Standing a respectful distance around a campfire, the Fecktones, led by singer Andy North, look forward to a day when they can have one or two more people alongside them.

In the same vein, singer songwriter Theresa McNulty (below) uploaded her song ’Isolation Blues’, which is a fun and bittersweet blues number about longing to be back in the pub, watching a band play with her friends.

Both songs are available on the groups’ respective Facebook pages.
