Wilswood Buoys / Shed / Dean Frost

“These guys are not (yet) signed, but they should be, and are definitely ones to watch” – ***Rock News***

From Mersea Island in Essex this young, new, and exciting duo, **Wilswood Buoys**, are currently cutting their name into the UK underground scene.

Mixing trad folk, with modern alternative acoustic pop, the band have a sound that’s raw, fresh, familiar, and accessible.

**Josh** and **Joe** are, like a lot of bands, a couple of mates who from simply getting together for a jam saw things quickly escalate into writing music and playing local gigs. Both had a completely different upbringing in terms of musical styles leading them down a path of intertwined genres worked into one, with a thread of catchy riffs, natural chemistry, and big, bold choruses.

2023 saw them complete their first UK tour with Frank Turner, followed by a support for The Levellers on their acoustic tour. Additionally, they played many festivals including Boomtown Fair and Northern Kin Festival.

*Frank Turner* also produced their acclaimed debut album ‘A New Beginning‘ which was released in January 2023, an album crammed full of barnstorming sing-a-longs ready to unleash on audiences across the UK and beyond!

“… melodic, foot-stamping folk” – ***Americana UK***
