Introducing The Woolverstones, an alternative folk duo formed in late 2019, are steadily carving out a name for themselves on the international folk circuit. Their debut single, "A Song for Harlequins"—hailed as a "Folk Masterpiece" by Laurel Canyon Radio—received airplay across the UK, North America, and beyond, drawing praise from legends including The Byrds and members of Woodstock icons Country Joe and the Fish.
Their critically acclaimed debut album Grey Eyed Dandy (2022), produced by the legendary John Wood (Nick Drake, John Martyn, Richard & Linda Thompson), further established their reputation. One track was named “Track of the Week” by BBC Introducing, and the title song was featured on Fruits de Mer Records' 2025 compilation, In The Year 2025, cementing the duo’s place in the modern folk landscape.
Following appearances at the Cambridge Folk Festival, a UK headline tour, and international dates across Hungary, Ireland, Germany, and Italy, The Woolverstones continue to captivate audiences with their cinematic songwriting and harmony-rich sound. They’ve supported folk luminaries such as Malcolm Le Maistre (The Incredible String Band) and Leo O’Kelly (Tír na nÓg), and performed at iconic venues including The Troubadour, The Horn, and The Dublin Castle.
In a bittersweet moment for Manchester’s music scene, The Woolverstones were also among the last acts ever to perform at the city’s legendary Retro Bar—an institution that helped shape generations of independent music.
