The Sheiling Aberystwyth, UK
Formed in 2000, THE SHEILING have primarily been a recording band and have produced a number of albums on their miniature
UMBRELLA HEAD label – ranging from the folksy ‘A Touch of Rain’ (2000) to the entirely self-penned 'Undiscerned' (2014) . Currently THE SHEILING is
the songwriting duo Steve Blaquire & Dylan Jones.
Work emanates from a wooden shed in mid-Wales, serenaded by owls & robin-song.
