Our Take

MAIRI CAMPBELL & DAVE FRANCIS have crafted an album that is as vibrant and eclectic as a jumble sale in a quaint English village. Green Goldin is a musical treasure trove that effortlessly weaves together traditional folk tunes with a modern twist that is as refreshing as a cup of Earl Grey on a rainy day.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where fiddles dance with mandolins and harmonies soar like a lark in the summer sky. Campbell's vocals are a revelation, effortlessly shifting from tender whispers to powerful declarations with the grace of a seasoned ballerina.

Francis' instrumentation is equally mesmerizing, with each pluck of the guitar strings and stroke of the accordion adding layers of depth and emotion to each track. The duo's chemistry is undeniable, as they effortlessly play off each other's strengths and create a sound that is truly unique and captivating.

Green Gold is a lush, evocative journey through the English countryside, with each track painting a vivid portrait of rolling green hills, quaint country pubs, and charming village squares. It's an album that is as cozy as a knitted sweater, yet as expansive as the open sea.

In a music scene that is often dominated by flash and gimmicks, MAIRI CAMPBELL & DAVE FRANCIS have reminded us of the power of simplicity and authenticity. Green Gold is a shining example of what happens when two talented musicians come together to create something truly special. So grab a cuppa, settle in, and let yourself be enchanted by the magic of Green Gold.
