Folk Police Recordings

The Silent Harvest is out today - 2 x CD in a limited edition of 250 and digital download. Traditional songs and ballads in their modular, ambient and kosmische variants. All profits to The Wildlife Trusts. folkpolicerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/the-si...

Folk Police is on hold for the time being. Normal service will hopefully be resumed next year. CDs and downloads still available at Bandcamp. In the meanwhile here’s a rather fab mixtape of early 80s UK cassette culture electronica. www.mixcloud.com/TheFolkPolic...

Jack Sharp & @naomirandall.bsky.social’s The Thorn were the high point of this year’s Cambridge Folk Festival for me: firmly in that fine tradition of psychedelic folk rock pioneered by Trees. Naomi’s classic English folk voice is perfect for this. Can’t wait for the album! Here’s some lo-fi pics…
