“Think Simon & Garfunkel lost at sea, and you get a sense of the mythic world at play here.”
– THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER

“Seamless vocal harmonies, stories of sea voyages, betrayal and desolation.”
-THE OBSERVER

Sons of Town Hall, the transatlantic folk duo of American songwriter/author David Berkeley and British songwriter/producer Ben Parker, is creating an entirely new performance genre. Part live concept album, part performance art, they conjure their timeless mythic universe under the aliases Josiah Chester Jones and George Ulysses Brown, 19th-century vagabonds who travel the world in a hand-built boat to escape troubled pasts and search for adventure and love. Designed as a live companion experience to their gorgeous radio-theater podcast Madmen Cross The Water, The Sons weave their wild and hilarious stories between their heartbreaking and rousing songs, taking audiences on a deeply imaginative trip every show.
