Reflections on 2025 now on Patreon 👇 One of the best ways to support independent artists directly is through Patreon. It's been a way I've been able to support my practice for the last five years, and I want to take it further into 2026. www.patreon.com/posts/146932...

I always kick off the year with a full European tour, and I'll be back in Denmark for the first time for two years. Please feel free to share with any pals in Germany, Switzerland or Denmark 🤞 www.johnnycampbell.co.uk/tour

Looking back at the year's highlights, month by month on Patreon, the obvious one that stands out is walking the Pennine Way. But a personal one, was making the move to Sheffield, the folky capital of the UK. I haven't felt at home in a place for a long time, and whenever I'm away, I miss it.

A Christmas Day tradition for me. To visit my favourite stone circle for a blustery, atmospheric moorland yomp. Today, it was FREEZING winds. What Christmas Day traditions do you do?

We don't just want 9 river walks, we want access to all rivers. 96% of rivers in England and Wales have no rights of access. Landowners have blocked public access to rivers for centuries. Labour's promise is just 9 new river walks. We say that's not enough.
