“Straight up, beautiful and bold folk singing” Mark Radcliffe
Hailing from the close knit communities of West Yorkshire, Bryony Griffith & Alice Jones are long-time purveyors of traditional English folk. United by a mutual fascination with song & tune collections from their native county.
“A sparkling tribute to Yorkshire’s folk heritage” – Songlines
Together they draw on a wealth of stories inspired by the landscape & language of their surroundings, not to mention the local characters they have both grown up with & still live amongst today.
Via villages, valleys & moorlands they channel their own brand. Combining their respect & understanding of traditional song, music & dance with their own contemporary style to present a unique repertoire of harmony, history & Northern banter.
Featuring Fiddle, Harmonium, Tenor Guitar, body percussion & intricate close harmony vocals; Bryony & Alice’s music celebrates a shared love for community heritage that resonates throughout Yorkshire & beyond.
“Honest, wholesome, and thoroughly enjoyable” – Mojo
