Welcoming brothers Chris & Nick Johnson to the lineup!
In April 2015, Chris & Nick finally began working together and uploaded "Broken Hearts & Carpet Burns", a song written over a decade before, to BBC Introducing. The song was chosen for broadcast on Introducing H&W and they were honoured to be Artist of the Week less than a fortnight later. Chris & Nick recorded a live session for Introducing H&W at Colwall Family Music Festival in July 2015 and later that year were placed at No.6 in Andrew Marston's Top 10 of 2015/Hot For 2016 list in January 2016. This has been followed by further Introducing radio play on BBC H&W and BBC C&W, headline performances at folk clubs and support slots with Steve Knightley (of Show of Hands) and The Dunwells. Other projects have seen them play with Thunderclap Newman, tour with Big Country's Mark Brzezicki and most recently sell out Coventry Cathedral performing Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, as part of the Everything Under The Sun collective of musicians.
With their heartfelt lyrics, powerful tunes and strong sibling harmonies, we’re excited to welcome the duo to the Freshly Squeezed Stage! They’ll be opening the stage on Friday so make sure you’re there!
