Described by The Guardian as "the finest instrumental duo on the traditional scene", Spiers and Boden first rocketed onto the music scene in 2001, quickly winning a clutch of BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and going on to form and front the extraordinarily successful folk big band Bellowhead.
The much-loved duo reformed in 2021 after a seven-year hiatus, arriving with a brand new album Fallow Ground and have been taking their brand of high octane, no-nonsense acoustic folk song and music to packed UK venues ever since.
"I guess we were looking for songs during lockdown with a sense of fun and light relief. I realise that there are zero songs about death on this album, which is probably a first and may get us expelled from the English Folk Dance & Song Society. Yes, traditional songs with a joyous edge" Jon Boden
