About us

Folk Radio UK is an independent radio station (that means no shackles or anyone telling us what we should play…we play what we want!) that was established in 2004 and has been building up a solid reputation in the field of Folk and Indie since. As an independent we have always sourced non-mainstream music, a lot of which is from lesser known artists. We play a range of genres from alt-folk to Indie and experimental music. We are based just outside of Bristol, UK.

We have a long and varied history…we started small and insignificant. We dabbled, we had two streams now we have one. We have a great following that humbles us and pushes us on to discover independent newcomers. We have a feel for the new. We can’t touch it all but we promise you new artists and a wind that will shake you! Expect radio unlike any other!

join us and support us, without you we’ll just fade away.
