Sloe Gin anyone?
February 3rd, 2010 · Blood Fish and Bone, Music
As I sit here sipping my ‘vintage 2007′ sloe gin, I thought it only right to share it round. Here’s a little taster from the forthcoming ‘Blood, Fish and Bone’.

Blood, Fish and Bone UK release date
January 21st, 2010 · Blood Fish and Bone, News, Uncategorized
At long last the new album has a UK release date of the 10th May. There will hopefully be some long overdue UK dates, who knows, maybe even a little tour. Seeing as Evermine never came out over here this will be the first since Songs Without Words in 2003. I’m approaching Blue Nile levels of tardiness here, but with the next album already written there can be no excuses for such a prolonged absence again, and if there is, I promise I’ll get a note from my mom.

First reviews of Blood, Fish and Bone
December 3rd, 2009 · Reviews, Uncategorized
The release of my new album Blood, Fish and Bone in Germany has attracted some very kind reviews. Here are some of the kindest (In German then English):
Das ist wunderbar. Der auf der Isle Of Wight lebende Paul Armfield singt, als ob permanent die Sonne untergeht. Das Meer rauscht ruhig an die Küste und die Lieder dazu sind wie guter Whiskey, alter, gut abgelagerter Brand. Elf Folklore-Stücke von Lebenslust und Melancholie!”
(Volly Tanner, Zeitpunkt-Kulturmagazin Leipzig)
This is wonderful, from the Isle of Wight Paul Armfield sings as if the sun is always setting. The sea crashes on the shore and the songs come like a fine, matured whiskey. Eleven folk pieces of love, life and melancholy. [Read more →]

Missing The Last Boat Home
October 24th, 2009 · Blood Fish and Bone, Lyrics
The run for the docks in the black early hours
Collar pulled tight, hat pulled down low
Alcohol fades as desperation sets in
The run for the last boat home
No I can’t miss the last boat home

Run
October 24th, 2009 · Blood Fish and Bone, Lyrics
Run like the dogs are at your heels
Run like the Earth’s on fire
Run like the wind is in your wheels
And the flames are growing higher
To melt your wings of desire
Chase the demons from your mind
Chase away your fears
But the past is never far behind
Almost close enough to hear
As it whispers in your ear:
Sloe Gin
October 24th, 2009 · Blood Fish and Bone, Lyrics
Slow, slow sloe gin
Blackthorn pulled me in
Juniper’s a curse
The sugar makes it worse
Slow, slow sloe gin
Slow, slow sloe gin
Purple stained the skin
When we picked them in the fall
Now you ain’t here no more
Slow, slow sloe gin
