Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker

Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker were a British folk music duo known for their delicate interplay between Clarke's evocative, soulful vocals and Walker's intricate acoustic guitar work. Their music seamlessly blended traditional folk melodies and contemporary sensibilities, earning them critical acclaim and a dedicated fanbase.

Their 2018 release, "Seedlings All", was seen as a pinnacle of the pair's collaborative journey, showcasing Clarke's lyrical exploration of personal growth set against Walker's expansive and skillful instrumentation. This album followed their 2016 offering "Overnight", an ambitious work that captured the transient beauty of everyday experiences through a fusion of pastoral folk and a modern, lyrical approach. Both albums, like their previous work on "Nothing Can Bring Back The Hour" (2014) featuring lush arrangements and a cinematic scope, and the raw honesty of "Homemade Heartache" (2007), display the duo's ability to weave narratives that feel both intimate and universal. Their earlier EP, "Through The Clouds" (2016), presented stripped-back versions of their songs, highlighting the strength of Clarke's voice and the purity of Walker's melodies. And with "The Birds" (2012) and "The Seas Are Deep" (2011), they re-imagined traditional songs with a fresh perspective, affirming their reverence for and innovative approach to folk music traditions. Though they decided to pursue solo endeavors after their last collaboration, the artistry and resonance of Josienne Clarke and Ben Walker's partnership continue to captivate listeners who treasure the nuance and depth of contemporary folk music.
