2 Human Organs and a Harmonica
Their limited pal ette and the equally limited permutations thereof may characterise the Human Organs sound, but it isn't sacrosanct. Reeds, chanters, bellows and lungs are welcome to thread their melodies in and out of the soft pulses of the pipes. This winter will again see musician Mike Willoughby join them for Oss Night in Ulverston, with a new piece composed for the occasion to go along with the traditional Stretton Oss Song, and accompany the cries and pronouncements of the Ostler. https://vimeo.com/371443632 Here 2 members of the band meet Mike on Gill Banks to explore the possibilities. Mike's Lydian modalities have felt out the shape of the space offered by the pipes, and a phrase is emerging, on which to hang a cats cradle of a tune, to which the Oss can dance.
