THE DRIFT COLLECTIVE
Originating in Devon, The Drift Collective are a group of like-minded musicians who have emerged blinky-eyed from the hedgerows, and now all support each other recording a variety of modern folk that proudly follows its own directions and inclinations without caring a fig what the mainstream might suggest.
“Drift Records have assembled a strong roster that manages to embrace the past while retaining an ironic distance, forging new paths out of the acoustic tradition.”
Is This Music?
"The Drift Family provide a near-miraculous glimmer of frail, reflective humanity in a bullshit-filled world"
The Word
"Inventive, imaginative and different; long may they collect together"
Record Collector
“As gorgeous as it is quirky”

MATT EATON
Matt Eaton has spent the last few years fronting Actress Hands and playing guitar for Thirty Pounds Of Bone and The Electric Soft Parade. He produces cavernous tones that traverse across arrangements both simple and complex, sparse and heart warming. He is an alarmingly unassuming, subtle, talented and confident artist.

TANDY HARD
Tandy Hard, with natural charisma and a hugely imposing physical frame, presents charming Dylan-influenced songs that are warm, poppy, dark, folkish, funny and a little scary all at once. Capturing the contrasting emotions of love and life with brilliant lyrical effect.
