Joshua Burnell has shaken the world of folk with his energetic arrangements of traditional folk songs, bolstered by the swirling distortion of the Hammond Organ. In 2017, alongside a run of UK folk festivals including Beverley Folk Festival and the Great British Folk Festival, Joshua Burnell & his 6-piece band completed a tour of the French alps, the highlight of which was the Pyroconcerts de Talloires where the group performed on a floating stage on Lake Annecy to an audience of 2500 people.

Into the Green, Joshua 's debut album, was received very positively by the music press, earning a 7/10 review in Classic Rock Magazine. However, Joshua has spent 2017 on his most ambitious project yet - the Seasons Project, in which he has released an original arrangement of a traditional folk song or tune every week for a whole year. "A welcome blast of originality in our serious world, it's a hugely impressive work and a lot of fun.” - Acoustic Magazine “A highly original story, a highly original concept, highly original songs, beautiful artwork, and completely brilliant in every respect.” – Fatea Magazine.
