Brian’s Mixtape #35: Leave the Animals Out of It

Brian’s Mixtape #35: Leave the Animals Out of It

Following a delectable week of Joni Mitchell, Brian’s allowed his hippy side out of the oak tree for a pad around the forest floor.  Now, don’t get Brian wrong: he’s not about to give up his beloved dormouse suppers.  He has been thinking a lot about lentil-munching, Haribo-avoiding vegetarians a lot over the weekend,...

By Stephen W Thomas

Below is our attempt at a comprehensive directory of folk artists currently on Twitter – of course, we aren’t Twitter deities and as such will almost certainly have missed out on certain artists. Let us know if you can think of any tweeting folk musicians in the comments below. Akron/Family Angus and Julia Stone...

Live: Efterklang @ The Black Box, Dublin

3 May 2010
By For Folk's Sake
Live: Efterklang @ The Black Box, Dublin

As far as concert venues in Belfast go, The Black Box is definitely one of the nicer ones. Gracefully skimming the line between rowdy, leery pub and wanker-infested bohemian dive, it’s a blessed haven where you won’t be immediately saturated with drink upon arrival, or be greeted with an onslaught of diabolical ironic moustaches...

Brian’s Mixtape #25: Hello, Sunshine

Every discerning folk fan’s foul of choice, Brian Wilson II, is pleased to announce that spring has most definitely sprung.  He’s spent most of the morning being dragged around a meadow by a fresh-born lamb in whose fleece his talons became most unfortunately entangled, and yet his pleasure in the changing of the seasons...

Brian’s Mixtape #20: The Big Freeze

You might think it's better for owls, what with their ability to fly and all, but our poor mixtape maker faces the daily threat of having his wings frozen together and falling from the...
