Here’s the playlist for Midnight Campfire episode #53, first broadcast Wed 26 Aug 2015. I’m not sure the mix was right in the first half-hour and felt tired at the start – but then I got more and more into it (music-wise it balances out great); increasingly good new music is showing up now, ahead of the autumn release flurry, so I must be careful to resist playing just endless new things with nothing familiar. Also, have to say Ange Hardy’s album is superb. Anyway, you can stream it online HERE and this is what I played:
Francis Pugh and the Whisky Singers – A Place Back West
(A Place Back West, self-release)
