about

Released almost one year to the day since the 2021 studio album Lammas Fair, ‘Live After Lammas’ is a one night snapshot of Henry Parker performing with his electric trio in the student quarter of Leeds at the Hyde Park Book Club, with Rob McNicholas on electric bass and Louis Berthoud on drums. The title of the live album, which marks as a nod to the much loved heavy-metal live albums of his teenage years (Iron Maiden, Motorhead) seems ever more appropriate as the set progresses, with performances of Drive East, and the The Brisk Lad transcending notions of what a folk artist should sound like in 2022 with wailing guitar leads and cascading drums.

The varied set takes in cuts from Parker’s two studio albums, the aforementioned Lammas Fair, as well as 2019’s Silent Spring, albums both long out of print on vinyl and much celebrated across the music press and the echelons of the psych and folk music forums that lurk in the overlooked, dusty corners of the web.

2022 saw Henry Parker play shows across the country, London, The Isle of Wight, Margate and North Shields, but this performance amongst his Yorkshire peers in Leeds stands out as the best of the lot. Expertly recorded on the night by Christopher Jones, impeccably mixed by producer Kurt Wood and deftly mastered by the much respected Nick Jonah Davis, ‘Live After Lammas’ is a record to be treated with the same respect as it’s studio produced counterpart and namesake.

I'm not sure where to begin. This is the second album I have bought from Katie. Hello Sun speaks to me because I also long for it to return to the blue skies and the warmth it brings in the spring and summer months. Honestly though, every track is special. It is not often I find myself so captivated by a musician these days, but Katie has truly done that for me. Heart warming beautiful music that should be heard by all who love acoustic guitar and vocals. Real and genuine. Mitch Wild
