Sons of Town Hall

Theatrical folk duo Sons of Town Hall is creating an entirely new performance genre: part live concept album, part performance art. American songwriter/author David Berkeley and British songwriter/producer Ben Parker conjure their timeless mythic universe under the aliases Josiah Chester Jones and George Ulysses Brown, 19th-century vagabonds dressed in shabby Victorian costumes who travel the world in a hand-built boat to escape troubled pasts and search for adventure and love. Berkeley and Parker weave wild stories between their heartbreaking songs, taking audiences on a deeply imaginative trip every show.
For fans of Simon and Garfunkel, Tom Waits, and Monty Python alike, audiences are uplifted and inspired, transfixed and transformed, left in awe of Sons of Town Hall’s harmonies and drunk on adventure and the tragic beauty of the human condition.
Sons of Town Hall produce their own radio theater podcast, Madmen Cross the Water. Give it a listen to discover the treat that is Sons of Town Hall.
