Fold – Fold

Our self-titled debut album is ‘a groove, a sensation, a news broadcast worth listening to with no shadowy figure directing the content’

The many who recognise and feel strongly that things are not right in the world seem to lack a convincing voice in mainstream media. We do not claim to be that voice but we hope that in some way we are helping to articulate it. Mainstream media is somewhat resistant to us because we are both different and challenging; we don’t fit conveniently into existing moulds and they don’t know whether their audiences will respond well to us or not.

It is all any of us can do to let those in mainstream media who are more receptive know that people are responding incredibly well and that they want to hear more things like this; people want to hear musicians articulating that voice which is so conspicuous by its absence. We want people to come away from listening to our album with a sense that somebody is working hard to make at least some of their unheard narratives heard in a way that does not belittle, alienate, aggress or misrepresent anyone.

Whether you choose to support our efforts or not we would strongly encourage you to make your own voices heard by telling your favourite music platforms (radio stations, magazines, websites, blogs etc) to represent the music that means something to you and speaks on your behalf. Not necessarily Fold but any music that is actively amplifying that which is unhelpfully absent from the daily feeds. Please let us all help to put some meaningful dialogue back into music.
