Fergus Quill: Up Down
Quill not only fell in love with the music but also felt compelled to play it—both to shine new light on Slingsby's work and to highlight the continuum between the irreverent, DIY indie spirit that once took flight in Leeds and the creative scene in that same city that Quill is part of today.
From ¡Up Yours! Fergus Quill Plays Xero Slingsby (Tight Lines Records, 2023), here's Quill's take on "Up Down," the title track from the second—and final—album Slingsby released in 1986.
