John Spiers and Jon Boden arrived on the folk scene at the start of the new millennium, quickly establishing themselves with a clutch of BBC Folk Award wins. Combining the traditional sounds of melodeon, fiddle and voice with innovative arrangements and high-octane performance style, they have been at the forefront of the English folk scene ever since.
They are co-founders of Bellowhead, which has gone on to fill the Royal Albert Hall several times, play the BBC's Proms In the Park and sign to major label, Universal.
As a duo, they bring to the stage an impressive back catalogue and an intuitive musical understanding that is as joyful as it is adept.
