The Black Feathers

With roots in British and American folk, The Black Feathers’ magical harmonies intertwine with gorgeous ballads and side-splitting humor.

English husband-wife duo Ray Hughes and Sian Chandler weave the spirit of traditional UK folk with acoustic indie rock, reminding listeners of the era of Steeleye Span. Hughes’ guitar work and the duos' emotive harmony vocals are pure magic. Their music moves easily between styles like folk, Americana, and acoustic indie without ever losing its focus on strong songwriting and clear, expressive performances. It’s a sound that has carried them from the UK to festivals across the U.S., including Philadelphia Folk Festival, Kate Wolf Music Festival, and AmericanaFest, as well as official showcases at multiple Folk Alliance conferences.
