Figurines Of Glass - The Day of the Rabblement

Fantastic original song called 'Figurines of Glass' by The Day of the Rabblement which was Recorded live at The Wine Vaults, Southsea. This song was created back when the group made music of the folk and acoustic style which they have developed from now but this song is still so great!The five-piece band is made up of talented and creative musicians and singers especially their female lead singer - Khaleda Brophy-Harmer. Each member of the Portsmouth based band play their own instruments on all of the songs which typically is a form of guitar .
