Friends of the Stars are a Country / Folk band from Birmingham, UK and have been Commercially Inviable since 2000...The purpose of this site is to tell our tale.
We are releasing records on our own Commerically Inviable imprint. The first album, "Lighting & Electrical" is available here and at various other locations on the interweb.
How we go about releasing our records and subsequent others remains to be seen, so this will document that experiment and journey. To writing, recording and performing we are now adding 'releasing records' to our list of activites.
We have been friends for a long time, playing and sticking together through thin and thin. We are prone to horrendous collective errors of judgement and have made some mistakes in our time. We'll no doubt make more of these in the near future. We also make some pretty decent tunes.
If you have any questions then please feel free to email info@friendsofthestars.co.uk and we'll get back to you.
