Talent of the Shires

Disparate Souls began as an acoustic duo to self release the songs of Rotherham songwriters Andrew Hossack and Steve Griffiths. This can be heard on the stripped back EP 'The Doors of the Past' released in 2018. Whilst still being at home in the folk, singer songwriter genre the duo wanted to develop their sound further, follow up EP 'Love and Redemption' was more experimental and introduced further instrumentation, much of it programmed.

For the next batch of songs the duo began using guest musicians to enhance the folk and country acoustic tunes, as heard on the mournful EP 'Poetry of Reason' and expanded even further with a full band backing for the recent EP "Waiting for the Rain'. This evolution can be heard on the eponymously titled debut album released October 14 2019.

The album is an eclectic mix of folk, country, blues and rock, as ever strong writing, evocative melodies and dark lyrics are at the heart of everything.
