Oysterband make a modern, folk-based British music, acoustic at heart, sometimes intense, sometimes rocking.

The band features: John Jones (vocal & melodeon), Alan Prosser (guitars & vocal), Ian Telfer (violin, concertina & vocal) and Dil Davies (drums). Former bass player Ray Cooper left the band in February 2013.
