The Albion Christmas Band returns this December for its 27th year of touring, continuing a cherished festive tradition that marks the true beginning of Christmas for audiences across the UK. Described by The Guardian as “the perfect antidote to the corporate Christmas”, the show blends seasonal songs, carols, storytelling and stellar musicianship into an evening filled with warmth, humour and winter magic. At its heart is the extraordinary voice of Kellie While, whose breath-taking singing brings both expression and intimacy to every performance. The current line-up evolved from The Albion Band, founded over 50 years ago by Ashley Hutchings MBE, one of the most influential forces in British folk music. Bob Dylan described Hutchings as “the single most important figure in English folk rock”, recognising a career that has left an indelible mark on British music. The Albion story is also intertwined with some of the most respected names in folk. Simon Nicol, long-time member of Fairport Convention and one of the defining guitarists and singers of the English folk revival, has been a key collaborator over the decades. Simon Care, renowned for his expressive melodeon playing and tireless work across folk and roots music, brings energy, sensitivity and virtuosity to the stage. Representing a newer generation, acclaimed singer-songwriter Blair Dunlop — award-winning guitarist and son of Ashley Hutchings — carries the Albion legacy forward with his own celebrated career, blending traditional influences with contemporary songwriting. Together, The Albion Christmas Band draws on this extraordinary musical heritage to create a heartwarming evening, steeped in tradition, authenticity and joy. This tour sells out early on every year – try not to miss it.
