The Very best in Folk Roots & Acoustic Music

Nik Barrell has been plying his trade since back in 2010 when he released his first album and since then he has been able to make around one release a year and 2018 is no different. This December saw the release of his latest masterpiece, Joy.

Tom Williams has unveiled a beautiful acoustic video for his current single ‘Early Morning Rain’. The single was premiered by Steve Lamacq on BBC 6Music, and has also received plays on the station from Shaun Keaveny, Chris Hawkins, Tom Robinson, and Huey Morgan, and by Jo Whiley & Simon Mayo, Dermot O’Leary, and Graham Norton on Radio 2.

Me and My Friends play soulful, poignant, and gloriously danceable music, subtly referencing many styles, including vintage Ghanaian highlife, Jamaican roots and Afro-Brazilian folk. The UK-based quintet create a timeless sound with a global outlook, performed with an infectious energy, and the result is instantly recognisable, highly original and truly genre-defying.
