“A powerful voice helped by a classy band” The Guardian
John Jones is best known as the powerful and charismatic singer with Oysterband, one of the leading folk-rock and roots outfits on the UK music scene, acclaimed by music critics and fans alike; recipients of numerous Music Awards; veterans of Glastonbury, Wickham, Shrewsbury, Tønder, and countless other festivals.
Now in 2026, John is taking to the road with new music and old friends: Ray Cooper a.k.a. Chopper and Al Scott.
Between them, the trio play a variety of instruments and will be performing a range of songs and tunes from over the years, from each of their back catalogues, alongside new songs and traditional numbers.
