If you haven’t already come across this great online radio station I’m sure you’ll soon be a convert.
A fine selection of music, full on unexpected treasures.
One of the DJs Adrian, recently interviewed me for a show which has just been posted. Please go and give it a listen, I’m sure you’ll enjoy the whole show.
As mentioned previously Blood, Fish and Bone finally gets a UK release on the 10th May (although you can buy it now from here or download in the usual places), and I’m very happy to say that I will be launching the album on the 10th at the Slaughtered Lamb in London. Other UK dates should be announced in the next few days including a launch party (well one’s not enough) on the Isle of Wight.

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.

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 →]

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
