The Wurzels will be finishing this year with a spate of December tour dates

The well-loved West Country band will playing multiple UK venues this December.

A spokesperson for the band said: “The Wurzels as always will bring their celebration of all things Scrumpy n’ Western – a genre packed full of double entendre, mainstream parody and a comical folk style.”

Signed to label heavyweights Columbia and EMI, The Wurzels continue to play sell-out shows and festivals every year and insist on returning to Gloucestershire.

Their quintessentially West Country cover of Kaiser Chiefs’ ‘Ruby’ is said to be a massive show favourite of late, as well as hip hop versions of the ubiquitous originals. 

The Wurzels are an English scrumpy and Western band from Somerset, well known for their number one hit single The Combine Harvester and number three single I Am A Cider Drinker.

The band is made up of Tommy Banner, Pete Budd, John Morgan and Sedge Moore, who together released a long list of albums over the years, including Greatest Hits, Christmas records and live LPs.
