“A single star is shining // Across the evening sky // Sending us a message // Then they're waving us goodbye // They are waving us a long, long goodbye // Thousands of light-years // Goodbye…”Oysterband - “Granite Years” (from ‘Deserters’, 1992)
From their earliest days as a noisy, politicised ceilidh band in the late Seventies, Oysterband have never stopped evolving or providing soundtrack to the changing times.
Initially meeting at Canterbury in Kent, at a time when pubs were alive with folk clubs and music sessions, the Oyster Ceilidh Band (as they were known then), were a band on a simple mission to get dancefloors bouncing. But with a chemistry between its members and music that made a profound connection with its audiences, greater things soon beckoned as the times became more complicated.
