Homespun, also known as the Bell House, is a historic home located near Winchester, Frederick County, Virginia. It is a vernacular, 2 1/2 story log, frame, stone and brick structure dating from the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The earliest section was built in the 1790s, and is a three-bay wooden structure consisting of two log pens with a frame connector, or dogtrot, and covered with weatherboards. A two-story, two-bay, stone and brick addition was built about 1820. Also on the property is a contributing stone smokehouse.
Homespun was an English pop/folk band formed in 2003 by Dave Rotheray, ex-songwriter and musician from the 15 million record selling band The Beautiful South. Homespun was originally a side project, designed as an outlet for Rotheray’s solo compositions. Other band members were Sam Brown, Melvin Duffy, Tony Robinson, Clare Mactaggart, Gary Hammond and Alan Jones.
The band recorded three critically acclaimed albums, Homespun (2003), Effortless Cool (2005) and Short Stories From East Yorkshire (2008). On this final album, Rotheray introduced guest vocals to the format, with contributions from Eleanor McEvoy and Mary Coughlan. All the Homespun albums and singles were released on Rotheray’s own Homespun Recordings label.
The band toured the UK four times, playing mostly in folk clubs and small venues. The band split up in August 2008, with Rotheray stating his intention to pursue a solo career. All other band members are still active in music, but it is unclear whether they will ever re-unite and perform together again.
Faithless on the skids hung out to dry oh seen better days With the sunlight fading like a tabloid and I i have found All those double-barreled freedom fighters are in for themselves And a call to arms has never been about anything else Fire one more round But hate is not a lone assailant Hear the drummers pound Listen to the homespun violent sound Hatred on the prowl underneath an oh new guise garb and gown And he's so persuasive when you look in his eyes all dumbfound And the double-talkin' politicians expose their intimate lives While the sheep are lowing for the shepherd to show he never arrives Fire one more round But hate is not a lone assailant Hear the drummers pound Listen to the homespun violent sound Sound Sound Ooh I'll tell you how it Pains to say this Ugliness is ours 'cause I would better lay in bed and Maybe even sleep all day Maybe sleep some more Some more Yeah now Suspicion is a powerful religion when it leads to the force on these shores In the jungles of the midwest dwarf militia train for war right on course Unlike the famous fable revolution won't yield a firework show Unlike the famous fable revolution won't end on july the fourth Fire one more round But hate is not a lone assailant Hear the drummers pound Listen to the homespun violent sound Sound Sound Sound Yeah sound Yeah the homespun sound I hear the sound
