Nice. I hadn’t heard of them so I pulled them up on YouTube. Really like that Reelgrass Album. They kinda have a New Newgrass Revival combined with a lil Merry Hell vibe.

Hi Brent, Living in the US it’s not surprising you might not have heard of Dave Hum unless you spent time on the BHO. I believe Dave and his band were street/pub entertainers from the south west of England. They probably earned a comfortable living from the tourists that flocked to the area during the summer months. As well as being great musicians they also had a clown act that was popular with adults as well as children. Sadly Dave passed away a few years back. His website appears to be still active and was providing a modest income for his widow.
