Uffington Horse's debut album features a selection of their best mythic material. Enchantment runs the gamut from upbeat to melancholic, a journey for the listener from the realms of Faerie to the depths of Hell and back again. Through dangers unseen and hardships unnumbered on the back of a white chalk horse, to be delivered safe and sound to hearth and home again.
Heather Alexander, a fiery Celtic, redheaded multi-instrumentalist with a commanding stage presence and mesmerizing voice, formed the trio Uffington Horse with the amazing rhythms of Dan "DanO" Ochipinti and solid, melodic bass lines of Andrew Hare.
Uffington Horse has been performing since 1999 in the Northwest. Their mix of Heather's original songs and traditional tunes put to a rock and roll beat brings to mind British bands Fairport Convention or Steeleye Span, but with a modern style that is all their own. The fantastic and mythical aspects of their music combined with their boisterous renditions of traditional Irish and Scottish tunes inspire fans of all ages.
