JOSIENNE CLARKE & BEN WALKER

BBC Folk Awards’ best duo Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker make pure, angelic folk with the warmth of familiar tales and the intrigue of tradition.

Debut Fire and Fortune saw them top folk charts, stunning with the gilded nuance of Clarke’s melodies and Walker’s simple but beautiful arrangements, casting recorders and violins beside intricate guitar pluckings. With second LP Nothing Can Bring Back the Hour dubbed “elegant, melancholy folk” by the Guardian, the duo continued their reign of stand-out folk.

Playing The Eagle Inn in October, words will escape when you hear their mesmerising lore live.
