About this album
Released in 1971, Bryter Layter expanded Nick Drake's intimate folk sound with richer arrangements and collaborations from musicians including John Cale and members of Fairport Convention. Although it received little attention upon its original release, the album has since become a touchstone for generations of singer-songwriters, with songs like "Northern Sky" and "Fly" finding new audiences through film and television. Today, Bryter Layter stands as one of the defining albums of British folk and a testament to Drake's enduring influence on contemporary music.
