OFFICIAL FOLK ALBUMS CHART JANUARY 2026

2 new releases have entered the January chart!

Nathan Evans & The Saint PHNX Band’s debut collaborative album, Angels’ Share (Universal), claims the No. 1 spot this month. Speaking to BBC News, Stevie Jukes (Saint PHNX) said the record is the result of 18 months of “touring, drinking whisky, becoming fathers and being best friends. We've been writing together for years, but Heather on the Hill was the moment everything shifted. It made me realize how powerful embracing our Scottish identity could be.”

Coming in at No. 38 is Eliza Marshall’s debut solo album, Eternal Birth (One World). The award-winning flautist and composer channels over two decades of international collaboration into a bold, genre-defying record that celebrates life’s cycles and continuity from conception to death, through nature, ancestry and renewal.
