Bio
The Owl Service is: Steven Paul Collins & Jo Lepine... with Diana Collier, Dom Cooper, Nancy Wallace and Kate Waterfield
From MySpace:
The Owl Service formed through a mutual love of British films and television of the 1960s and 70s, the great outdoors and {of course} the sound of the English folk revival. No retro obsessives, The Owl Service simply believe that music production peaked around 1969 and they merely seek to perfectly encapsulate the influence of the greatest albums and artists of that time. Beautiful music, simply arranged, exquisitely executed and captured on tape with authentic warmth - prepare to be enchanted by The Owl Service.
All Owl Service self-releases have now sold out although copies are often found amongst the piles of mess at Owl Service HQ - if there's anything you're particularly after, feel free to ask as I might have one. A Garland of Song will be reissued on on both vinyl and CD in April 2008 by Southern Records. It's been remixed/remastered and will be housed in all new packaging with artwork by Dom Cooper.
The Static Caravan reissue of Cine is still available from Smallfish and Norman Records and the John Barleycorn Reborn compilation CD (which features our exclusive version of 'The North Country Maid' with Rachel Davies) is available now from our friends at Cold Spring plus the usual mail order outlets.
