about

Folkroom's new compilation, 'A Christmas Anthology for You', is a burst of festive spirit at the end of a tough year. The album features nine tracks by acts who have performed regularly at Folkroom events over the past decade.

Some of the songs featured here have previously only been available as stand-alone singles. Others were available once, but have since been locked up in the Grinch's vault until we broke them free. And four of these tracks are brand new and exclusive to this compilation!

Together, 'A Christmas Anthology for You' is a very special treat - a flash of seasonal joy that also stands as a monument to a grassroots institution, and to the incredible talent performing in the British folk scene today.

Unbound speaks healing words, but the music feels like healing, very special and moving but so simple. Just a guitar and a piano. I'm sure the glitter and ambience she put in the vinyl helps! <3 shadyneutron
