Ninebarrow is a multi-award-winning folk duo, who are impressing audiences across the country with their innovative and captivating take on the folk tradition. Described by Mark Radcliffe as sounding like “two halves of one voice”, by Seth Lakeman as “a fantastic duo” and by Kate Rusby as “absolutely amazing”, Jon Whitley and Jay LaBouchardiere combine breath-taking vocal harmonies and melodies, delivering songs that are inspired and rooted in the landscape and history of the British isles.The duo were nominated in the 2017 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards in the ‘horizon’ category for Best Emerging Artist and most recently they picked up Best Duo in the Folking.com awards 2019; their album, ‘The Waters and the Wild’ (released in April 2018) was awarded 5-stars in both ‘The Morning star’ and the English Folk Dance & song society’s ‘EDS Magazine’ and received airplay on BBC Radios 2, 3, 6 Music, Wales and Scotland. Folk luminary, Mike Harding, has hailed it as “absolutely monumental”.Their following album, ‘A Pocket Full of Acorns’ (released in March 2021) was released to wide-spread critical acclaim including coverage on BBC1’s Countryfile and BBC Radio 4’s ‘Front Row’.
As they celebrate their first decade with the release of their fifth studio album, it is clear that the name of Ninebarrow has become synonymous with one word – quality. The atmosphere-charged 'The Colour of Night' (released on 1st September 2023) is their first release in two-and-a-half years – and is a record that takes their remarkable success story to yet another level.
