Shipcote Rides Again  (2010)

SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT

It’s impossible to dislike and often, as on the wonderful "I’ve Got Faith In You", very easy to love. If they're not touring it’s almost enough to make you want to move to Newcastle in order to see them. Mike Davies-Net Rhythms - Feb 2011

All the tunes bring a broad smile to the reviewer’s face. There's that eccentricity in all the songs & performance that’s nevertheless so entertaining. It’s time to take the band out on the road Shipcote! - Dave White - R2 - April 11

We get the reward of having something that sets up a warm glow inside each time the 'play' button is pressed. - Loudon Temple. Maverick - May 2011

He writes songs that are warm, humane and down to earth - and also leavened with a little gentle humour. I hope it's only a matter of time before his songs get picked up by more commercial acts. Keep an ear out for Shipcote & Friends, anyway - definitely something of a hidden treasure. - John Davey - No Depression Feb 2011.

Shipcote’s Ruin  (2009)

SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT SOLD OUT

(a collaboration with Mothers Ruin)

I could almost smell that fresh air creeping through the windows from the wilds of Durham...that mixed with the dreamy melodies and vocal interplay between Shipcote & Beth. Backed with the perfect compliments of the players and the lyical landscape....this is an effort worthy of both the radio...and the general public's full attention. - Eddie Russell / Country Eastern / Outlaw For Peace
