I’ve decided to put out a Bandcamp only single for Men’s Mental Health Month (November) Download and donate here. Both very personal songs, the first I wrote and recorded for my best mate Trevor Smith as he was dying of cancer, called ‘I’m Here’ it’s a counter to my entirely selfish song ‘I’m Not Here’. Trev was…
White Boots
This is a song that was written and recorded for the ‘Found’ album back in 2015 but never included as I could not get it to sound right. I’d completely forgotten about until a couple of months ago, when, testing out some new speakers, I was looking for something to mix and dug this out….
Songs Beneath The Trees
In early 2023 I was commissioned by Gift To Nature to write 5 songs about the trees that grow on Sibden Hill in Shanklin, a small but delightful bit of woodland that sits at the edge of a fairly modern housing estate, and that I’d never previously known about. After several walks there with the dog I…

Summer 2017
I’m not doing a lot musically this Summer, (what with having a day job and everything) but what I am doing is delightfully varied and in wonderful places. If you’re in the vicinity, come give us a hug. In November I’ll be back in the Netherlands…
German Tour, August/September 2016
I’m very pleased to say that I’ll be back on German soil soon playing some of my favourite places and some new ones as well as two festivals, Slowing Down Time in Bielefeld and The Sound Of Bronkow in Dresden. There are still a couple of free dates, so if you fancy a house concert,…

The first isat the Spring Arts Centre in Havant and will run for the whole of October. The second is at Dimbola Lodge, the former Freshwater home of pioneering…
Paul Armfield’s Friends Society
Greetings! Orphaned by my record company as it drew it’s last breath earlier this year, and twice snubbed by the Arts Council as not worthy of their funding, I find myself abandoned, left to fend alone, a bearded singer/songwriter adrift in a world already drowning in bearded singer/songwriters. Sniff. But this is no sob story,…
