About Jim Moray

"a word-of-mouth sensation...the biggest leap forward in folk for 30 years" - Neil McCormack, Daily Telegraph.


"the most significant musician since Bob Dylan to decide that the folk idiom is the perfect vehicle for his musical adventures and experiments." - Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald.

"Irritatingly young, handsome and talented, Jim Moray is the poster boy of what will probably become known as nu folk." - The Independent

"The 21 year old singer-musician from Birmingham is threatening to do for the folk world what Nigel Kennedy did for classical music." David Sinclair, The Times

"Impassioned folk songs...with an unnerving confidence and Brit Pop swagger." Sydney Morning Herald

"This is where the folk tradition turns left and hits the mainstream" The Independent On Sunday

Jim's third album Low Culture will be released on July 14th 2008, following the award winning Sweet England (2003) and Jim Moray (2006).

The Allender Band

Robin Allender is a Bristol-based singer-songwriter and guitarist. His fingerpicked, melodic folk has been compared to Elliott Smith, Bill Callahan and Jim O’Rourke. His debut album, The Bird and the Word, was released on Dreamboat Records in July 2007.

Since then Allender has formed a band to help flesh out his solo material.
