Sussex band Ungagged brings together the unique talents of three friends who share a love of real music: Mark Allen, Tom Arnold and Richard Durrant. Together, they create soaring harmonies, aching melodies and songs about the big stuff in life - love, betrayal, revenge, lust, loss and fear.

âUngagged was only meant to be some old mates getting together for some fun â playing music we love and messing about by the sea,â says vocalist Mark Allen.
âBut it was hard to contain from the start.â

The intense reaction to live shows spurred Mark to start building up a set of original songs inspired as much by Johnny Cash and Alison Krauss as by John Barry and Jimmy Webb. Word got out that this was a band that could play real music, backed by renowned concert guitarist Richard Durrantâs ever-changing carousel of acoustic, classical and electric guitars, mandolin, banjo and cello, plus Hammond organ and accordion. This is real music - for real music fans.

As requests grew for gigs people started to ask where they could buy a CD. So the âhigh tide sessionsâ began â a swim in the estuary and then a few hours in the recording studio. And so Where The River Meets The Sea was born.

This is an album with a character all of its own. Country rockers with chiming guitars sit alongside lavish arrangements and stripped-down ballads of church-like stillness. Stamped across the entire album is the personality of a band with heart and soul. Everything changes where the river meets the sea. Come on in - the waterâs lovely.
