Cole Stacey’s debut solo album, Postcards from Lost Places, is an album that repays repeated plays to dig into the weft and weave of his musical textures and discover the pull of these lost places.

Watch the video for ‘Quiet Is Louder’, the first single from Cole Stacey’s debut solo album ‘Postcards From Lost Places’, inspired by the likes of a prehistoric settlement on Dartmoor and a Victorian mining village–scheduled for release on 7 February 2025.

India Electric Co. takes a giant leap forward with Pomegranate, a highly textured and musically adventurous album. Just as the pomegranate symbolised death and regeneration, the album has a framework of contrasts and shifting states; the seeds within are glistening jewels.

India Electric Co. head out on tour this April, joined by percussionist Russell Field of Midge Ure. The addition brings an exciting new dynamic to their music – watch them performing Heimat live at St Ambrose Church in Bournemouth.

A masterful, innovative, highly accomplished and persuasively entertaining work that reinforces their credentials as one of the truly pioneering acts in contemporary folk music, this is one gap you really do need to set your mind to.

Tablelands is the third and final EP in India Electric Co.’s trilogy of songs contrasting the city and the country and our search for greener pastures in its themes of displacement and unification. An outstanding trilogy that serves to emphasise the duo’s status on the folk landscape.

On their EP trilogy, India Electric Co. have set out to not only explore different musical pathways in search of their sound but to take us (the audience) on that journey with them. Rob sat down with Cole and Joe one afternoon during their UK headline tour to find out more about the motivation behind the EP trilogy.

On their second in a proposed trilogy of EPs, India Electric Co demonstrate that they are out there on the cutting edge of reinterpreting traditional folk music for the modern era while never losing sight of the past.

Our Song of the Day comes via a new video for The Gulley from that inventive folk duo India Electric Co. It opens their new EP, Seven Sisters which is not only their folkiest release to date but also a superb showcase of the duo’s talents which has them at their most inventive.  Their best yet.
