"tremendous, joyous, remarkable......the cream of
their genre." - Rolling
Stone
"Hello, we're Oysterband. We make a kind of modern, folk-based British music, acoustic at heart but not always quiet. We’ve been doing this for a long time, and we’re pretty good at it by now.
Everything we’ve experienced makes us sympathetic to the left, the green and the sceptical; but at the same time we like the rich diversity of tradition. Contradictory? You bet!
We’ve made one DVD so far and 11 studio CDs; we’ve played in 35 or so countries; we’ve played jails and political rallies as well as festivals and gigs; and we’ve made good friends all over the world.
Since 2008, Oysterband has consisted of
John Jones (voice, melodeon),
Alan Prosser (guitars, voice),
Ray “Chopper” Cooper (bass guitar, cello, voice),
Dil Davies (drums) and
Ian Telfer (violin, concertina, voice etc).
