About the artist
Dando Shaft
DANDO SHAFT: A Psychedelic Journey Through Time Dando Shaft, the enigmatic British musician, is a true maverick in the folk rock scene. With a sound that seamlessly blends intricate acoustic guitar melodies, haunting vocals, and whimsical flute solos, Dando Shaft takes listeners on a psychedelic journey through time. Hailing from Birmingham in the late 60s, Dando Shaft quickly made a name for themselves with their unique blend of folk, rock, and prog influences. Led by the talented duo of Dave Cooper and Martin Jenkins, the band's music has been described as "ethereal" and "otherworldly" by critics and fans alike. Their self-titled debut album, released in 1970, garnered critical acclaim and cemented Dando Shaft's reputation as one of the most innovative bands of their time. Tracks like "Rain" and "Kalyope Driver" showcase the band's ability to create lush, immersive sonic landscapes that transport listeners to another realm. Despite their relative obscurity compared to other bands of the era, Dando Shaft's influence can be heard in the work of contemporary artists such as Fleet Foxes and Joanna Newsom. Their music resonates with a sense of timelessness that speaks to the enduring power of folk rock. So, if you're in the mood for something a bit off the beaten path, dive into the sonic world of Dando Shaft. You won't regret the journey.
