About Me

The Grymoire is the whimsical brainchild of Adam Scott and Mark Shillaker who, since the autumn of 2004 have weathered numerous line-up changes, woodworm and doubt to bring their curious, plangent songs into the world. Each ditty is hand woven from the finest organic nonsense, smoked over a fire of damp, mossy twigs and left to curdle in the moonlight until ready to be hand delivered to your ears by trained courier gnomes. Our live shows include a cast of thousands! GASP at the sordid tale of the Reverend Aubrey Wetheringsett and his trouser-bending obsession! SWOON at the poignent whimsicality of Tiger's Song and Mildmay Road! GROAN at the dreary ramblings of Cold Comfort Colin! WONDER at the magical deeds of Algernon, Clive and the Brigadier! A capital time is assured as the two friends give of their all, often with the most heartfelt singing!

NEWS FLASH
