The Topic Songbook
Here is a songbook we’ve produced for our on-line gig at The Topic Folk Club on Thursday 27th May, 2021. This is so people watching at home can join in and play or sing along.
Find Your Dream
Mockingbirds’ new CD ‘Find Your Dream’ is out now. It’s a collection of our own songs and a few covers. We’ve enjoyed every minute of writing and recording the songs and we hope you enjoy them.
Available at gigs from Pam and Cath for £5 or by post for £7. It’s also available as a download from Bandcamp for £5.
Please contact us via the FB page or our contact page. Thanks.
Christmas Like We Do
Mockingbirds welcome you to our CD in aid of Bradford Metropolitan Food Bank. The food bank provides over 10,000 emergency food bags for families in crisis each year. Our wish is that no family should have to rely on food banks but it is a sad reality for many. If you have bought our CD we thank you. Happy Christmas! Happy Solstice!
The CD is available at gigs from Pam and Cath for £5 or by post for £7. It’s also available as a download from Bandcamp for £5.

Solstice Song We’re grateful to Alouette Iselin for allowing us to use this song. Alouette told us she wrote the song when all alone one snowy winter’s day in New England and could hear the sound of a party going on next door. We wrote alternative lyrics for the last verse to celebrate the winter solstice and Yuletide.
The sun returns to bring the light,
Let’s celebrate this solstice night,
And keep the yule log burning bright
At the turning of the year.
