The best folk and acoustic music from Britain and beyond.

This week, recently reformed Oxford indie-folk band Stornoway play live.

Dig The Mountain! is Stornoway's fourth studio album and combines their inventive songwriting and love for the natural world. Singer Brian Briggs also has a doctorate in the study of ducks, and has managed a nature reserve in Wales.

The band formed in 2006, disbanded in 2016, and reformed in 2022. They are touring the UK this autumn.
