Rooted in years of music festival trading, under canvas and in all weathers, our Bakewell shop, in the heart of the Peak District, brings that same spirit indoors.
Still sharing the music we love and honest recommendations, just with less mud and far better coffee.
Featured albums
Sorcerers sits in that slightly blurry space where folk, psych, and early prog all seem to be happening at once without anyone stopping to label it.
Acoustic passages drift into heavier moments, ideas come and go instinctively and freely, and there’s a loose, exploratory feel that never quite settles into one thing for long.
It’s not the most immediate listen, but that’s part of its charm. Give it a bit of time, and it will reveal a record that’s more cohesive than it first appears - one for when you’re happy to let an album take its own route and see where you end up.
British folk-rock with one foot in ancient balladry and the other stumbling into ’70s electric folk.
The Mortons and Co. take traditional tunes and give them fiddle, acoustic guitar and occasional rock heft - like Steeleye Span by way of a Tuesday folk club gig that got slightly out of hand.
There’s whimsy, jigs that won’t leave you alone, and a sense that everyone involved is genuinely proud of the word ‘weird’ - perfect for those who like their roots tangled and a little wild.
Folk rock that forgot to behave.
Gay and Terry Woods plug in, turn up, and drag the tradition through the back door of the pub.
Equal parts charm, noise, and stubborn brilliance.
For over 10 years, our Bakewell shop has been where the good stuff lives, which is just the way we like it.
We’re starting to put a small selection of our rarer, more collectable records online, but that’s only the tip of the crate.
If you’re hunting for something specific, give us a shout - chances are it’s sitting here waiting for you.

Bandolier finds Budgie sounding tight, confident, and very comfortable with how heavy they can be without overcomplicating things.
The riffs are solid, the rhythms have a bit of swing to them, and there’s a clarity to the songwriting that keeps it from drifting into murk. It’s weighty but never plodding, with just enough melody running through it to keep things interesting.
It’s a record that shows how effective they are when they keep things focused. No excess, no fuss, just well-built heavy rock that’s easy to get into, and even easier to turn up a little louder than you meant to.
A slightly looser, more exploratory listen, Never Turn Your Back on a Friend lets the band stretch out a bit without losing the heft that defines their sound.
It takes its time, wanders a little, and ends up being all the better for it. One to settle in with when you’re happy to let a heavy record unfold at its own pace.
This is Budgie leaning into their quirks as much as their volume - odd song titles, unusual arrangements, a truly overlooked band.

Possibly one of the best British acoustic folk albums ever made, with music stripped back to what really matters: voice, guitar, and songs that feel like they’ve been lived in for years.
Jones’ playing is intricate without ever sounding fussy, and the singing has that rare quality of feeling both relaxed and completely absorbing. Nothing here is rushed, and nothing needs to be - Jones is a brilliant song interpreter and guitarist.
It’s an album that draws you in quietly and keeps you there without much effort. The arrangements are simple, the storytelling is sharp, and the whole thing has a warmth that never tips into sentimentality.
