The Battle of Rouge Rue

The Battle of Rouge Rue is a dark, dramatic folk song inspired by Guernsey folklore.

Drawing on the legend of Rouge Rue, it tells of a brutal clash between islanders and the fae, where iron met magic and the hill itself was said to run red with blood. With images of cursed hillsides, moonlit shores and ancient wounds that never fully healed, it turns one of Guernsey’s old stories into an epic tale of fear, sacrifice and survival.

Mysterious, haunting and steeped in island myth, The Battle of Rouge Rue is a song about folklore, memory and the shadows that linger long after the battle is over.
