Description
Jon Boden has become the "stand out performer of his generation" (The Guardian) of traditional folk artists, but one whose repertoire extends far beyond the boundaries of the genre, from leading progressive folk juggernaut Bellowhead to his work in Spiers & Boden and as an acclaimed solo artist. 'Rose in June' is Boden's fourth solo studio album, following his acclaimed 2017 album, 'Afterglow'.
"Since this band (The Remnant Kings) was debuted live at Cambridge Folk Festival on the mainstage in 2016 we've been able to tour the UK and play many festivals in this bigger line-up so it felt very important to get into the studio and record lots of the stuff that is central to the live set, but has never been committed to tape," says Jon Boden on 'Rose in June', the new album recorded at the legendary Rockfield Studios. Live favourites such as 'Rose In June', 'All Hang Down', 'Leviathan' and 'Beating The Bounds' have all been lovingly rendered here by producer and long-time collaborator, Andy Bell.
Jon Boden is best known as the lead singer and main arranger of Bellowhead. After twelve years, a quarter of a million album sales, seven singles on the Radio 2 playlist and selling out hundreds of venues throughout the land and beyond. Widely respected as an interpreter of traditional song, his solo live shows showcase Jon's instrumental talents on fiddle, guitar and concertina, as well as his trademark 'stomp box' which he and John Spiers introduced into to the world of traditional music in 2001. Through his solo work and his work with Bellowhead and Spiers & Boden, Jon has won eleven BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
His most recent album 'Afterglow' was released in October 2017 and continues Jon's explorations of a post-oil world, this time following the course of two lovers over the night of a fire-lit city carnival. The first single from the album 'All The Stars Are Coming Out Tonight' was playlisted on BBC Radio 2. The release was followed by the launch of the 11-piece Jon Boden & The Remnant Kings which toured the UK in autumn 2017 and spring 2018. Summer 2018 saw the big band in demand for major folk festivals including Wickham Festival, Beautiful Days, Snape Proms and Shrewsbury Folk Festival. 2019 saw Jon touring with the three string players from the band and performing in both the 6 piece and 11 piece versions of the Remnant Kings.
