Hadrian's Union are the house band for Music Festival - Music on Marr where lead singer Stew Simpson lives. The Village (Castle Carrock) has a sign which says PLEASE DANCE - As you enter the village. It's not often a village has a theme song, well this one does now.
lyrics
Please dance if you get the chance
Ask me now I’ll take your hand
Dance in the CITY, dance in the town
dance in the village when the sun goes down.
The M6 is so slow and long Got lost along the way,
Charnock Richard, Lancaster, TEBAY.
The Kids, the car, the bags are packed,
We might get there today
To leave the work and troubles far away
I see a light shining,
Like thunder and lightning, It’s coming up over the hill
My heart starts racing With the future I’m facing
I just can’t keep my feet still
(CHORUS)
standing by the exit the band is playing loud
I feel my heart is beating to the sound I need to dance so badly But now the nerve escapes
I can’t move my feet stuck to the ground
With hands that are shaking, my confidence breaking This is how I thought it would be
They all turn away when I catch their eye
Will nobody here dance with me?
(Chorus)
I got what I expected I came to get rejected
No one here likes dancing on their own
I sense someone behind me A light touch on my shoulder
Maybe now it’s time to go home
Expect the unexpected I didn’t get rejected
You were here all along You asked me to dance,
Took hold of my hands
And then we danced to this song
(Chorus)

Because I couldn't decide what my favourite track was. It's a beautiful album and every track could be my favourite. However, I am a soppy git so I chose stowaway. Thank you Jon and keep up the good work. amediamonkey
Martin is one of the finest steel string finger style guitarists on the planet as well as a great singer. Simply beautiful heart felt music and I highly recommend exploring his vast catalogue. Dan Ferguson
Rundgren-esque rock with big hooks and a hint of the baroque, recommended for fans of Jon Brion and post-Kill Rock Stars Elliott Smith. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 20, 2024
Ian Anderson just gets on with the job of making solid, honest music that displays a real appreciation of its roots. Oh yes, he's a great musician,too.
