Maggots in the Sheep Hide is all traditional material, songs and fiddle tunes with
Carol Denney on vocals, concertina and fiddle, Jim Nelson on vocals and banjo, and
Steven Strauss on acoustic bass with harmony vocals.

The most traditional thing about us is that we are not experts, we can't tell you anything for sure about the tunes, and we play them differently every time we play. Maggots in the Sheep Hide song list:
