Darren Hayman Thankful Villages Vol 1
English songwriter and ex-Hefner frontman, Darren Hayman talks to Britflicks about his enthralling and ambitious new album Thankful Villages Volume 1. A Thankful Village is a village in Britain where every soldier returned alive from World War I. Darren Hayman visited each of the 54 Thankful Villages and, focussing on village life, made a piece of music and a short film for every one. Some take the form of instrumentals inspired by the location, some are interviews with village residents set to music, others are new songs with lyrics or found local traditional songs. Thankful Villages Vol 1 is released via Rivertones on 3 June. You can buy the music from his website at http://hefnet.com/thankful-villages-volume-1-by-darren-hayman/ The short films are being uploaded as they're completed.
