Welcome

Welcome to FolkLaw. FolkLaw is the music of Nick Gibbs - a rhythmic Tanglewood acoustic guitar sound underlying some great songs, whose lyrics are driven by the social and environmental chaos of the lives we all lead. All accompanied by haunting melodies on the blues harp and fiddle.

"It's a social commentary, of everything that you and me,
have done, to make the world this way"

Sounds and downloads

On the music pages, you can download folklaw songs, lyrics, and the stories behind the songs. Sometimes I've also posted up the original dots and song notes - following the Folk tradition and keeping the stories and history behind a song alive.

Quotes

Here are some quotes from music regulars and MC's of the UK folk club scene:

"Remarkable!"
"Clearly, sung from the heart"
"Wonderfully distinctive guitar style and vocals"
"Great - you could hear a pin drop"

Concerts & Booking

While the set's being put together, you'll find FolkLaw in local folk clubs. The songs and arrangements are being sounded-out at Cheltenham, Worcester, Minchinhampton and Frampton, among others, and are going down a storm! Full-on FolkLaw concerts will be coming soon. If you are a festival looking for a quality solo folk act, or are a politically minded band playing good music and in need of a supporting solo artist, let me know.
