Someone Like Me is a collection of heartfelt moments, bringing together a diverse cast of individuals seeking meaningful connections. Recorded in various locations—from quiet English studios to the vibrant cities of Sydney and Los Angeles—these artists create a beautiful tapestry of folk songs about love, loss, and spirituality.

The album features notable contributions from seasoned musicians like former Syndicate Of Sound member Sharkey and late Canned Heat member James Thornbury, while also celebrating the amateur spirit of hobbyists. Lynne Ann Kingan recorded her upbeat campus rocker, and U.S. Navy recruit Fred Potts shared his serene ballad from a Spanish naval base. The collection highlights raw production, including Jon Betmead’s gospel and Goldrust’s stripped-down hymn.

Faith plays a significant role, particularly through the Seventh-day Adventist quartet Remnant and the spiritual songs of Gary Ramey and Jim Kennedy. A standout piece includes Charles Murphy’s powerful account of the Black experience from a 1971 concert, while high school group The Superwomen tackle racial inequity with their angelic harmonies on "Lowlands."

Someone Like Me also features three previously undiscovered tracks found online, including Jim Huxley’s bedroom pop and Charlie Webster’s synthesized soundscape. John Agostino shares his tender psych-folk demos, revealed after being bootlegged in 1977.

Compiled by Mikey Young, the album showcases seventeen rare expressions of truth and devotion, enhanced by Chris Fallon’s artwork and detailed track notes, along with a foreword from poet Rod Roland.
