Ray Hearne<br />
Singer/song writer and poet Ray<br />
Hearne is no ordinary songwriter.<br />
He relishes language, rolls it around<br />
his tongue and unleashes a jubilant<br />
jumble of images, words, rhymes<br />
and couplets all fighting for space<br />
in his songs. Who else could sing<br />
words like ‘prestidigitate’, ‘fettler’<br />
and ‘runaroundabout town lad’ and<br />
make it sound like the angels came to<br />
Wath-on-Dearne?<br />
