Folkal Point are a folk and folk rock band from Bristol, England which was active throughout the early 1970s.[1] The band was formed in 1971 and released its eponymous debut studio album one year later in 1972 through the now defunct British label Midas Recordings.[2][3]

The band's name is a play on words. The actual focal point of the band was the lead singer, namely Cherie Musialik, according to an interview with her and fellow band member Stuart Amesbury on YouTube dating to early 2022.[4] The sound of the band is described as 'psych-folk' on the band's official website, although this term would not have existed when the band first formed.[5] The band also exhibits influences of folk baroque.[6]
