Child Owlet // Debbie Armour - pt 2

Old Tunes Fresh Takes

Debbie is back again as we listen through your brilliant takes of Child Owlet, a harrowing tale of a hapless lad’s grisly execution at the hands of the jaded Lady Erskine and Lord Ronald.

If you haven't already, we recommend you go and listen to part one where Debbie introduces the tune to us.

Next up, we’re chatting with Olugbenga Adelekan (Metronomy/Eku Fantasy) who’s introducing us to Iwe Kiko, a Yoruba song about the agrarian life and the importance of remembering tradition.
