New album and single! Charlotte Smith & David Clifton

Coming very soon!

The long awaited and much anticipated album of traditional folk songs (and a new folk-song!) is ready for release. The mixing and mastering is complete, and the official release date is set for November 20th, 2025. There will be a limited edition CD release available from the Little Room store.

As some of you already know, the project was delayed in its initial stages by the theft of the computer being used for the recording sessions. So it was a case of back to square one. The project was started in London and completed in Knoxville & Nashville, Tennessee, USA, with contributions from two first rate USA musicians on violin and drums.  So this little masterpiece is finally ready for release after many years of careful production.

Little Room is releasing a Christmas single from the album for promotion and playlist/radio play. It has already created great interest on both sides of the Atlantic; ‘Wouldn’t It Be Lovely’ is the second track on the album. All the music will be available on the usual digital sites, including Apple Music, Amazon, Spotify and Bandcamp.

We will keep you updated with further information, and details of any promotional shows.
