Live Review: John Fullbright, Guthrie Green, Tulsa, Oklahoma – 28th June 2025

July 11, 2025 Paul Dominy 2

The Horsenecks “In The West”

July 11, 2025 Chas Lacey 0
Cowboy ballads and fiddle tunes in Old-Time string band tradition. Lovers of folk music with an Appalachian twist will find much to delight in the third album release from The Horsenecks, a husband-and-wife duo based in […]

BC Camplight “A Sober Conversation”

July 10, 2025 Alasdair Fotheringham 0
A cathartic tale of redemption and renewed hope, brilliantly told. “I had spent 30 years being terrified to open that door, and afraid of the price I’d pay once I had. I’ve opened the door. To […]

Interview: Teddy Thompson on change, habit and Never Staying the Same

May 20, 2026 0
