“A personal response to the climate crisis”In this specially devised show for What A Wonderful World Festival, the lead singer of Bellowhead presents The Floodplain Trilogy, a personal response to the climate crisis, weaving together contemporary reflections and musings with the sung narratives from his three groundbreaking solo albums, Songs from The Floodplain (2009), Afterglow (2017) and Last Mile Home (2021).
Climate change anxiety is at the heart of the trilogy, but among the darkness there are many moments of light and hope. The Floodplain Trilogy presents a vision of the future that brings together folk-infused ideas of community and weaves them into speculative stories of survival and rediscovery.
“Alone, Boden still has the energy of a twelve-piece band” (EDS Magazine)
Jon Boden has become the “stand out performer of his generation” (The Guardian) of traditional English folk artists, but one whose repertoire extends far beyond the boundaries of the genre.
Jon Boden is known for his performance in the Hollywood movie About Time: his YouTube audio of the track has over 9 million views and over 22 million plays on Spotify. He is the lead singer and main arranger of the progressive folk juggernaut Bellowhead, who have sold over a quarter of a million albums, had seven singles on the Radio 2 playlist and have sold out hundreds of venues throughout the land and beyond, including notably the Royal Albert Hall.
