All Upon A Lovely Summer's Day

Burton Bradstock is the stylistic alter ego of the multi-instrument musician and composer Jimmy Cannon and was born to present his newest creation. All Upon A Lovely Summer's Day is his innovative debut album with one foot in the bucolic past and the other very firmly in the contemporary. The album's arrangements sympathetically recast English folk songs from the early to mid-nineteenth century. "I'm searching for the fundamentals of sound, sense and story telling, which no doubt will lead back to the endless richness of English and Celtic balladry, poetry and the speech patterns themselves" says Burton.
