The Ballad of Johny Walford


Okay so you have heard about this over the last few months, may have listened to scraps on my Soundcloud, even came to the performances, well here is a film that we commissioned Nathan Hughes to make. A short 7 minute film to create an emotion and feeling of  Ralph and my collaboration.  We would like to take this story on the road, to create other performance based on hangings and the like. If you like this film and think you know of anyone who may be interested please pass on this link.  Ralph and I can be both contacted via our websites, through Facebook and Twitter.  If you know of any short film festivals we can enter it into again please let us know, comment below or contact us.
We really hope you enjoy the film.

More Romancing the Gibbet sound to be heard

To start the story, I made a cart, a musical cart, a sound cart, that cart needed to be played.
Played in public so I needed to get a feel. These are the recording that pre-empt the sad tale of Johny Walford and Jane Shorney. Listen on my soundcloud here:  https://soundcloud.com/michael-fairfax
Great sounds.
