In 2017 former Bellowhead front-man and multiple BBC Folk Award winner Jon Boden introduced the new big band Jon Boden and The Remnant Kings. Supported by the release of the new album Afterglow, which explores stories from a post-oil world, the band have now toured to major venues across the UK with material from the album interspersed with songs and tunes from across Jon’s career.
In spring 2019 Jon will be bringing the Afterglow experience to The Met with a cut-down line-up: Jon Boden & The Remnant Strings featuring Jon Boden (fiddle, guitars, concertina, stomp-box), Helen Bell (viola), Morven Bryce (violin) and Lucy Revis (cello).
