One of England's best kept musical secrets". - Rolling Stone. These words from Rolling Stone seem to sum up Devon based Peter Bruntnell's career so far. A handful of albums for Almo and Ryko in the 90s coincided with the emergence of Britpop (RIP) and despite the best efforts of a very supportive music press the records mellifluous and introspective nature didn't fully satisfy a "mad for it" general public. But for those that did take the time to check out this softly spoken songwriter the rewards have been plentiful. His subsequent albums for Loose (Ends Of The Earth, Played Out and 2005's Ghost In A Spitfire) featured the kind of startling tales of small town romance and big city isolation, the erosion of community and the wonders of family life that ticked all the right sonic boxes for a fiecely loyal fanbase that has ensured that over the course of six acclaimed albums Bruntnell has managed to sustain a very healthy career in this most fickle of industries. He has also retained the respect of his peers. To return to Rolling Stone, he may be one of this country's best kept secrets but if you ask the likes of Kurt Wagner, Peter Buck, Mark Eitzel (Bruntnell supports American Music Club on a UK tour in September), Jay Farrar or Kathleen Edwards they'll all agree that he's a writer of many qualities. All of which are more than in evidence on Peter And The Murder Of Crows - his seventh studio album.

The Hi and Lo are two musicians and a boot full of instruments. Formed in 2007 they play stripped down original roots music.
