The idea for this mix took shape late one evening after listening to one inspirational folk music track then digging out another until I had nearly 90 minutes worth of some of the most beautiful music I’ve heard. Many of the tracks pack a strong emotional punch from Jackson C Frank’s ‘Blues Run the Game’ to the beautiful and innocent ‘Beginners’ by Matthew Fowler. I also included some live tracks including a cover of Nick Drake’s ‘Black Eyed Dog’ by Sam Brookes which was recorded for a Folk Radio UK session.
The majority of the tracks feature on our radio channel on Deezer which has just had a huge playlist update today.
Enjoy!
