Jamie Smith's MABON award delight....

Jamie Smith's MABON

The band have been awarded the 'BEST GROUP' title in the SpiralEarth online music magazine awards.
Voted for by the public, in a one person, one vote contest against 3 other highly regarded bands, the band learnt of the news on the night of their last date of the M and M tour across the UK.
Having now completed a run of shows covering the whole of England during the last 2 months, the band takes a well earned break before heading off for festival land, with shows in (at this time) Wales, Scotland, England, France and Belgium.
For full information as to where they are washing up, the bands website has all the details

The band also featured in the Scottish based 'Living Tradition' magazine - published in January as their 100th edition with an article and interview with Jamie.
The band also had an hour special dedicated to the band on BBC Radio Lancashire's 'The Drift' folk programme. Hosted by one of the bands long time supporters Phil Brown, the show included live 'in session' recordings, interviews and recorded material.
One other special event that has been confirmed is the headline appearance of the band in the first Welsh 'Folk' Proms in Cardiff in July.
This is alongside further festival news that the band are confirmed to play the 'Festival du Cornouaille' in Quimper, Brittany.
Busy times!!
