Harbottle and Jonas

Harbottle & Jonas are a British folk duo from Devon, England, known for their rich harmonies and roots-inspired storytelling. Comprising husband-and-wife team David Harbottle and Freya Jonas (who married in 2016 and began collaborating musically around the same time), they blend traditional folk with contemporary arrangements using instruments like the harmonium, accordion, banjo, and guitar. Their work often celebrates maritime history, community, and the natural world, as heard in releases like *Carry On You Fishermen* and *The Beacon*.

With a reputation for spirited live performances—showcased on *Live @ The Great Hall with The Cleaves*—they’ve built a loyal following in the UK folk scene. Recent albums like *Songs of Love & Death* and *Saving The Good Stuff, Vol. 1* highlight their knack for reviving forgotten folk tunes while weaving in original material. Their sound feels both timeless and fresh, like a cozy pub session meets modern acoustic craftsmanship.
