Acoustic · Americana · Folk — South Yorkshire
Driving riffs, solid basslines and big harmonies — roots music dug straight out of the Doncaster coalfield, and a brand-new EP on the way.
Who we are
The Colliers came up in the pit villages south of Doncaster — a place where the working song never really went away. We take the honesty of English folk, the swing of American roots, and a rhythm section that hits like a shift change, and we build songs you can stamp your boots to.
Acoustic at the core, but never quiet. Think warm harmonies over a bassline that won't sit still.
