Carol Hodge Releases “The Moan Of A Thousand Years” Video

Yorkshire-dwelling singer-songwriter Carol Hodge is a wonderful musical dichotomy. With her roots and ethics firmly set in punk as keyboard player and long-term collaborator with Crass frontman Steve Ignorant and his current band Slice Of Life, Carol is also a uniquely gifted song-writer and as able to conjure up beautiful pop-infused, heart-wrenching melodies as she is screaming into the face of authority and injustice. She has now revealed The Moan Of A Thousand Years, the third release from her third studio album, The Crippling Space Between, that is available Midnight Stamp Records.

The Moan Of A Thousand Years is a tongue-in-cheek reflection on the chaos of the last 18 months. Lyrically, it charts Hodge’s journey to acceptance of a world turned upside down, and the irony of mental health issues making the situation so much more challenging. The music video was created by videographer Ash Pears and showcases the energy and excitement of Carol Hodge‘s Band, Guitarist Piper Dawes (Housebound Ska Collective, Wobbly Bob), bassist Matt Crosier (Random Hand, Complicated Men Of Leisure) and drummer Tom Swales, who will be touring the UK soon.

The Crippling Space Between is available on CD, vinyl and digital formats here
