Greg Russell and Ciaran Algar

Two time BBC Folk Award winners Greg Russell and Ciaran Algar met in 2011. Since meeting, two albums and numerous tours have followed as the duo developed and honed their stage craft, becoming one of the most sought after young acts on the English folk scene.

Their second album The Call received 5 stars in fRoots, 4 stars in both Radio 2 Magazine and The Telegraph, and a host of other brilliant reviews with Bright Young Folk describing it as an 'outstanding show of maturity' with 'enormous promise'.

The duo come from musical households and both began to develop their musical skills long before joining forces. Algar was originally a member of Irish band TRI, and Russell had begun a career as a solo musician supporting acts such as Karine Polwart and Lau.

The press coverage and folk club reports have been glowing and rightly so.
