Mine would have to be Laura Marling and she was fantastic live! How about you guys?

[Frankster]

Bob Dylan ftw!!! EDIT: Jake Bugg is quite good too! "Country song"

Johnny Flynn, but Laura Marling is fantastic too.

By quite a stretch... I'm glad I'm not alone in my admiration of it!

I also really like Noah and the Whale's early stuff from Peaceful the World Lays Me Down but they've gone sort of rock-pop, I mean it's alright relatively catchy but i wish they went back to folk!

[Lorem Ipsum]

I'm partial to a bit of John Martyn. RIP

Edit: Beck's album One Foot In The Grave is also very good, I recommend you listen to Woe is Me or Cyanide Breath Mint as a start.

YES! I love "Country Song" and "Lightening Bolt", plus he's from Nottingham just like me haha! I saw him at the Dot to Dot festival a few weeks back, he was brilliant.

That's a bloody hard question. At the moment, I'm taken by Goodbye England (Covered In Snow). You?

Am I right in thinking that Jake Bugg is like 16/17? What a talent he will be...

I think so, definitely around that age...maybe 18? His popularity is rising and fast, not surprised to be honest!

Yeah, in fairness, I couldn't absolutely decide on any particular song.

I'm just taken by the lyric "But a friend of mine said it's good to hear that you believe in love even when said in fear".

I'm loving Keaton Henson atm but there are too many good artists to name!

Ah, so good! I really like Your Only Doll (Dora) from Alas, I Cannot Swim. Have you heard the story behind the lyric "There's a boy across the river with short black curly hair"? It's quite amusing!
