Jim Moray - Skulk

Apr 9, 2:33pm Direct Current
Jim Moray • If It's True Official Video (HD)
Jim Moray wants you to jettison whatever preconceptions you may have about British folk music. While much of the current nu-folk movement in the U.K. tends to be modern songwriting dressed up (or, rather, stripped down) to an intimate and acoustic nexus, Moray reverses that strategy by reimagining primarily traditional folk songs into what are often striking works of elaborate and dramatic art/pop. Any strict genre borders -- pop, rock, soul and folk -- are meaningless inhibitions in Moray's world. Taking its name from the word for a collection of foxes, the self-produced fifth album Skulk [...]

Reinventions: The evolving sounds of Tim and Nikki Bluhm and Jim Moray

Jan 19, 9:44am Cover Lay Down
Reinventions: The evolving sounds of Tim and Nikki Bluhm and Jim Moray A two-fer today, folks: a British artist and a California couple matched in their versatility and the breadth of their journeys, similar in the way they pull on and play against the older sounds of their respective regions, yet quite different in their influences and output. Let the featurettes begin! Tim and Nikki Bluhm are a busy pair: she's a solo artist with an incredible second album on the market; he plays backup for her in five-piece country rock band Nikki Bluhm and the Gramblers , [...]

Jan 29, 2011, 1:17pm Never Enough Notes
Anais Mitchell // LIVE // Union Chapel // 25.01.11 People jostled eagerly into the beautiful Union Chapel, full of grand expectations for the sole London performance of Anais Mitchell's acclaimed folk-opera Hadestown. Featuring a stellar cast of folk greats including Jim Moray, Wallis Bird (who totally rocked during her support set) and the LEGEND that is Martin Carthy, the pressure was on for them to deliver a knockout show. And at times they did. At times the fourteen-strong cast held us deeply under the spell of Mitchell's superbly written tale, helped not a l... Read more..

In Modern History: Jim Moray

Oct 1, 2010, 12:00pm the Eaten by Monsters blog
In Modern History: Jim Moray It's really strange how some acts can have a smash hit of an album, and then promptly drop off the radar completely for the rest of their career. Jim Moray certainly can't be described as a one-hit-wonder, but since the phenomenal success of his debut EP, Sweet England , his releases have become ever more low-key.
