From their website

"Hailed as the �the green shoots growing from the very top of the English folk family tree�, Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker have been winning awards since 2012, culminating in two BBC Folk Award nominations and widespread critical acclaim for their first album �Fire and Fortune�.

But one listen to the new album �Nothing Can Bring Back The Hour� and you'll hear that this is music that looks forward as well as back.

They bring together honest, uncompromising songwriting with the masterpieces of a tradition to give you something audacious and assured.

You might hear a medieval madrigal followed by a soundscape of layers of Josienne's flawless voice. You might hear Ben's signature fingerstyle guitar paired with laconic, meandering jazz trumpet.

This duo is driven by what feels true to the song, however bleak, however exposing, however technically difficult".

In short - they're very good !!
