Bryony Griffith and Alice Jones - Wesselbobs

Hailing from West Yorkshire, Bryony and Alice are long-time purveyors of English folk music, united by a fascination with local folk song and tune collections. Following the triumphant acclaim of their 2022 debut album 'A Year Too Late and a Month Too Soon', which earned the pair 5-star reviews and global airplay, Bryony and Alice followed up with the hugely successful 'Wesselbobs', a sensational album of winter songs and tunes produced by Joe Rusby.

Featuring uniquely local versions of classic seasonal songs, they have unearthed a treasure trove of traditional gems, intuitively arranged to cast a spotlight on the rich traditions, tales, and winter rituals of Yorkshire. The album's title 'Wesselbobs' refers to a local pastime whereby decorated, evergreen boughs, built around a spherical frame, were carried door to door by Wassailers or carol singers in the 18 and 1900s.
