  • Description

    Their most innovative studio album to date - Show of Hands as they've never been heard before. All the Show of Hands trademarks are there - intelligent lyrics, startling melodies, a plethora of instruments and impeccable presentation. But 'Witness' marks a confident new direction for the band - more melodically adventurous, edgier and assured. Over a year in the making, it gives a new twist to the Show of Hands sound - the result of an inspired collaboration with Grammy-nominated producer Simon Emmerson and Mass (Simon Massey) of Afro Celts fame. Says Simon Emmerson: "Show of Hands have an uncanny ability to create fresh, contemporary music that is also deeply rooted in the traditional music of England and the West Country, and Steve Knightley is without doubt one of England's finest song writers - a storyteller of passion and integrity."
