New Single

The Martyrs is a powerful ballad which tells the story of the Cornish Rebellion of 1497. This was a significant popular uprising against King Henry VII of England. The rebels, led by Michael Joseph An Gof (a blacksmith from St Keverne) and Thomas Flamank (a lawyer from Bodmin), were protesting the king's heavy taxes imposed to fund a war against Scotland.

The rebellion culminated in the Battle of Blackheath just outside London, where the Cornish forces were decisively defeated by the King's army. An Gof and Flamank were subsequently executed (hanged, drawn, and quartered).

The song is a powerful ballad that commemorates this important event in Cornish & British history often overlooked and not given the importance it deserves. It features vocals by Carol Rockey and Jack Godwin. It was written by Kent Godwin & Carol Rockey.

We recommend these playlists and would be very grateful if you would give it a listen.
