π₯ *BOPFLIX session* with Bristol folk, jazz band *AROUND ABOUT DUSK (UK)* playing new track *'The Swarm'* (written by Rachel Lawrence and arranged by Around About Dusk.). Filmed live at The Green Man pub, Bristol, UK (2025). Special thanks to Ed Shakespeare for audio recording and mix.
New single 'The Swarm' available here π:
aroundaboutdusk.bandcamp.com/album/the-swarm-single
A folkloric witch-tale set to a Latin groove β weaving dark, sultry, folk harmonies with cumbia rhythms, horns, and dance-floor energy. The Swarm introduces listeners to a powerful, misunderstood figure β part storm, part oracle, part force of nature. A witchβs tale told through hypnotic cumbia grooves, where folk harmonies and Latin horns conjure both darkness and
celebration. Like a dance party in the underworld!
ποΈ *Line-up:*
Rachel Lawrence - Vocals, accordion
Gus Dolding - Clarinet, guitar
Bill Frampton - Double bass, vocals
James Guilford - Trumpet
Damian Keane - Drums

π΅ *Lyrics - 'The Swarm'*
(Original song - Rachel Lawrence)
She was like thunder on mountains
She was the eye of a storm
She was the edge of a knife's blade
She was the bees when they swarm
You keep howling at the moon
Eldritch croon breezes strewn
Howling at the moon, the moon the moon
She could tell fortunes in tea leaves
She met with covens at night
Poison down the maw of King Louis
He ceased much to her delight.
You keep howling at the moon
Eldritch croon breezes strewn
Howling at the moon, the moon the moon
She could be sunflowers beaming
She could be full of delight
She could be roses in full bloom
But she loved to bloom in the night
You keep howling at the moon
Eldritch croon breezes strewn
