We’re still alive! News has been a while coming.. We’ve been nestled away in our Northern Quarter basement writing and arranging new songs these past few months. We’re pleased to say that we’ve finally reached a tipping point and all of a sudden we seem to have nearly 20 new songs and lots of other ideas for covers/trad songs and instrumental meanderings. More soon!

We’ve been doing a kind of ’12 days of Christmas’ / ’Advent songs’ type of thing over on our Facebook page. We’ve been posting a song/music video every day; some are new songs released this year, others are old songs we’ve recently discovered and some are songs we’ve known about for years but for whatever reason have gained significance for us this year.
Chosen by the band, we give you ‘Samson & Delilah’s Songs of the Year 2011’:
