about

Somewhere in the UK.

Hyduc Street is a proud middle England conurbation built from the toil and sweat of its forefathers and mothers, a place fighting to find its way in an era of constant change. The challenge of the 21st century. A bit like Detroit during the 60s.

In Hyduc Street stoicism is the drug of choice: local people remain certain that their hometown will find an answer to its current identity crisis. Wedged between it's industrial past and uncertain future, there are echoes of hope, hope that shouts out the shape of this city's future.

'Hyduc Street' is a homage, a metaphor, an acknowledgement to the warmth, humour and determination of the people of an often overlooked and maligned area, the place 'we call our home.'

"It's got to come good ..."

For sure.

lyrics

Hyduc Street

Hollows of emptied hearts
Circles of braids and knots
This old town in chains
We won’t be leaving soon

Listen to the skirl of life
Sitting with the clowns I’m calling, calling
‘All this world’s our home’
Out on Hyduc Street
I won’t be on my own

People I’ve lost and found
Kids in their hand me downs
This old town’s in chains
We won’t be leaving soon

Trace along the skyline light
Hold a lock of gold, a sin kissed trinket,
All this world’s my home
Out on Hyduc Street
A place we call our home

Sunday skinning, bells are ringing,
All the monkey heads are singing,
La la la la, la La la la la la
We could see the free show, walk, along our Nile
Find a proper cup of tea, love,
The Cut is more our style,

Out on Hyduc Street
In this place I call my own,
We never run until we cry, and don’t let go or say goodbye,
Out on Hyduc Street - Out on Hyduc Street

It’s got to come good, it’s got to come right,
This old Town in chains – let it break free tonight.
