Beachcombers from Orkney Monster by The Chair
This set starts as a gentle walk along the coast; beachcombing being one of Gavin's favourite pastimes. We move through a peedie Irish polka and end up with the horror of the Angry Seal, an unapologetic hissing and spitting reminder from Douglas to keep your distance.

Combining a benignly hedonistic version of Viking berserker spirit with a formidable breadth of musicianship, Orcadian eight-piece The Chair deliver a turbocharged mash-up of folk, blues, rock, dub, klezmer and more. Collectively the sound bursts with the energy of a heavy rock gig—a rampant ruckus of fiddles, banjos, accordions and drums—yet remains acoustic at heart.
