Description

With the band, they have sold out shows all over the UK and Europe, performed at innumerable festivals – Cropredy, Glastonbury and Colours Of Ostrava in Czech Republic – and had their songs featured on film and TV, most notably Hollywood’s Blockbuster Ocean’s 8.

Now they have set out as duo, performing acoustic versions from their Holy Moly and The Crackers catalogue, traditional folk songs and their own self-penned ballads, fuelled by many a late-night bottle of the house red and writing their own style of rough, earthy folk songs – full of ghosts, memory, love, heartbreak and the endless dream of the road.
