Description
The Fernweh was created by three musicians, Jamie Backhouse, Ned Crowther and Austin Murphy, who wanted to make a record that embodied their shared love of British folk and psychedelia.
Their eponymous debut album, released in 2021, brought together a collection of songs that were broad-ranging in their scope, colour and mood, examining childhood nostalgia, memory and loss through a distinctly British lens – a creative strand that runs through many of the group’s influences: Anne Briggs, The Zombies, Frederick Delius, Basil Kirchin, Fairport Convention and Joy Division
The second album Torschlusspanik! (German for fear of being left outside the gates) addressed some of the conflict and turmoil both around the world and also internally and emotionally. There is humour and there is sadness within these stories.
