The Woolverstones are an alternative folk duo formed at the end of 2019. In March 2020, they released their debut single "A Song For Harlequins". The single was greeted with positive reviews and was hailed as a "Folk Masterpiece" by David Postal of Laurel Canyon Radio. The single got airplay on radio stations in the USA, Canada and the U.K. and was praised by distinguished members of bands such as The Byrds and Woodstock legends Country Joe and the Fish.
In January 2022 The Woolverstones recorded their debut album "Grey Eyed Dandy" at Slate Room Studio (located in the quiet village of Pencaitland, just 20 minutes to the East of Edinburgh). The record was produced by John Wood who produced classic albums such as "Pink Moon" (Nick Drake), "I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight" (Richard and Linda Thompson), "Solid Air" (John Martyn) and "Solomon's Seal" (Pentangle). The album garnered positive reviews, received a "Track of The Week" on BBC Introducing and aired on multiple radio stations across the world.
In July 2024, The Woolverstones played Cambridge Folk Festival before embarking on a six date UK tour in October 2024. The tour included dates at London's Troubadour (supporting The Incredible String Band's Malcolm Le Maistre), The Horn in St. Albans and Coda in Colchester. In November 2024, they toured Hungary and in January 2025 they commenced a tour of Ireland including supporting Leo O’Kelly (Tír na nÓg) at Walters in Dún Laoghaire. The Woolverstones also took part in several sessions at The Cobblestone in Dublin and performed at some of the city’s key music venues including The Sound House.
