Give me a kiss!!!

A song of hope for those without a valentine, You Will Be Loved Again is proving to be one of the most popular tracks from Up Here. To celebrate this I’ll be releasing a video to accompany the song on February 14th. If you’d like to be in the video all you need to do…


Thank You!

Since the release of ‘Up Here’ earlier this month I’ve been overwhelmed with the level of support from both friends and strangers alike. I can barely keep up with the messages from well-wishers, happy to see my music getting some attention from press and radio. It’s been completely humbling. Thank you! It’s a small gesture…


A Happy new Year to you.

A very happy New Year to friends old and new. And what a start!!!!! Up Hear has been released in the UK and already there have been great reviews in Mojo, Uncut and the Mirror. Folk Radio have made it album of the month and written possibly the best review I could ever hope to…


‘Up Here’ UK release details

I’m very chuffed to announce that Up Here is all set to get a UK release through PIAS distribution in early January 2014. To support this we’ll be doing a couple of live dates in December, the first on the 13th at Ventnor Arts Club  and the second on Monday 16th at the Slaughtered Lamb…


October Tour Dates

I’m very pleased to be able to share details of the forthcoming tour to promote the launch of ‘Up Here’ in October. There are several other dates to be confirmed and we haven’t even begun to look at UK dates yet. All gigs listed here will be with the new band consisting of myself, Dave…


Up Here

So…. the new album is mixed, mastered and being pressed up as we speak. Unfortunately, budgetary restrictions mean it will not yet be released on vinyl, but CDs and downloads will be available from early October. The cover is a painting by my good friend Florian Mitgutsch and portrays me as a middle aged superhero…


Uwe Schenk Trifft

I was recently invited to appear on a very interesting show called Uwe Schenk Trifft (Uwe Schenk Meets) in Stuttgart. Filmed in front of a live audience in a train shed/theatre, each show takes the form of a chat show/live gig focusing on just one artist. And what an eclectic selection of performers they have…


Live Dates

With the new album all recorded I’m pleased to say a few gigs are starting to come in. Hopefully in most instances I shall be accompanied by a selection of musicians who perform on the new album. First up is a show at the Isle of Arts Festival on the 19th April at the Boathouse…


New Album Finished

Very pleased to say that after a magical week in Studio Humbug (an old water tower on Queen Victoria’s Osborne estate), the new album is pretty much all recorded. We made good time and recorded much more than an album’s worth of material completely from scratch, and we all had much more fun than men…


2013

A happy new year to one and all. It’s been a long time since my last post here so thought it about time that I update on everything that’s been going on with Paul Armfield musically and, more importantly, my plans for the coming year. Although 2012 saw very little activity in my own right,…
