Oysterband

Thursday 6 May 2021   8:00pm-9:30pm
Cecil Sharp House, London
£25 | £10 Under 26s
Book Now

Don’t miss the punk ceilidh band roots-rock pioneers.

International folk-rock legends Oysterband return to help celebrate (only one year late... blame the virus) the 90th birthday of the home of English folk, Cecil Sharp House with not one but TWO live performances.

Also playing at 5pm 

Theirs has been a unique and fiercely independent career. Oysterband still play with that spirit of the punk ceilidh band that roared through people’s lives all those years ago. But the growing depth and sensitivity of their songwriting, coupled with the strength of John Jones’ voice and their remarkable musicianship, have lifted their music into a richer, more acoustic era.

‘It’s a chance to unearth some of the gems that took us into the magical world of traditional music in those early days and interweave them with songs of our own that they inspired’ – John Jones

Book with confidence: if we have to cancel any performance, or if you are no longer able to attend the event, you will be able to claim a full refund or request a voucher towards a future purchase.

Please ensure you have read important information about Covid secure events at Cecil Sharp House before making your booking.
