Steamtown are a folk duo from Yorkshire serving up toe-tapping modern folk with a big grin and a nod to the past. Armed with guitar, banjo and accordion, they play original songs that feel timeless — the kind that sound like they could’ve been written in 1957… or last Tuesday. Rooted in Yorkshire storytelling and sharpened by a decade of playing side by side, Jeff and Elli mix driving rhythms, memorable melodies and an easy rapport with their audience. Their music sits comfortably between tradition and the here and now, earning them praise as “the real deal” with “well crafted songs that are totally contemporary but could pass for decades ago.” Whether it’s a packed festival tent, a folk club, or a sunny afternoon crowd, Steamtown bring acoustic music that makes you tap your feet, sing along, and leave smiling.
