The Sheriff are the kind of band that never cease to put a smile on your face. They play foot-tapping folk, bluegrass, blues & Irish music with a Somerset twang. Their name comes from the famous Wurzels song ‘The Sheriff Of Midsomer Norton’, and their version has been claimed to be the “the best in the West”. Fronted by singer Jon Parry (whose voice has been known to knock the froth off of a pint of Guinness); alongside friend and versatile singer-songwriter Sam Evans (who has played UK’s top festivals and supported world-class musicians with his original music); talented banjo, mandolin & harmonica player Mark Kinnear; and his brother Joe Kinnear keeping the rhythm on the snare and kick drum. Their sound is guaranteed to have everyone in the audience tapping along.
