Blair Dunlop

Our Song of the Day is from a special session that Blair Dunlop recently performed for Bob Harris’ ‘Under The Apple Tree Sessions’. It’s a cover of Jackson Browne’s ‘These Days’.

With his second album, House Of Jacks, Blair Dunlop builds on the considerable promise of his debut and subsequent Horizon Folk Award, creating a bold and big new sound in the process.

Our Song of the Day is the title track from the forthcoming album House of Jacks, the second album by the award-winning Blair Dunlop who is on tour this month.

Watch the new video from Blair Dunlop for ‘Something’s Gonna Give Way’, the first single from his forthcoming new album House of Jacks.

Blair Dunlop has today announced an end to ongoing work of the current line up of The Albion Band to allow him and band members to focus on their own individual projects.

Two members of the new re-vitalised Albion Band have been nominated in the 2013 BBC Folk Awards and the band announce a special guest for their Exeter gig: Phil Beer of Show of Hands fame.

Building on a summer of successful festival appearances, The Albion Band is taking what could be called a victory lap with a second UK tour this November.

As far as band shake-ups go you don’t get a more striking change than this one. The Albion Band is to get a complete re-boot for 2012 as the torch is passed to a newer generation of English folk talent. Ashley Hutchings will be handing over the reins to his son, Blair Dunlop, who is joined by Gavin Davenport, Tom Wright, Katriona Gilmore and Tim Yates.
