OYSTERBAND
Oysterband occupies an unusual position in the world of music, combining folk sensibility and acoustic instruments with rock dynamics and sharp, engaged songwriting. The passion and energy of their live performances has become legendary. Starting as an amateur ceilidh band, their career has grown exponentially to include festivals and tours in 35 countries across Europe, Asia and North America; 12 studio albums, including one with June Tabor; and a collaborative project called The Big Session, which is also the name of the festival they host each year in the UK. GREAT BIG SEA had a smash hit by covering OYSTERBAND’S song “WHEN I’M UP” (I Can’t Get Down) on their CD PLAY in 1997 and the two bands have toured together and remained friends ever since.
