John Jones Trio – The Song Goes On

John Jones is best known as the powerful and charismatic singer with Oysterband, one of the leading folk/rock and roots outfits on the UK music scene, acclaimed by music critics and fans alike; recipients of numerous Music Awards; veterans of Glastonbury, Wickham, Shrewsbury, Tønder, and countless other festivals. Now in 2026, John is taking to the road with new music and old friends: Ray Cooper a.k.a. Chopper and Al Scott.

 

Now, with Oysterband saying farewell to their armies of faithful fans across the UK and Europe with their hugely successful The Long Goodbye tour, John is about to embark on his next chapter, enlisting the help of his two long-standing friends and fellow musicians: Ray Cooper a.k.a. Chopper and Al Scott. Ray joined Oysterband in 1990 and brought in the cello sound alongside his bass and backing vocals before leaving in 2013 to go solo. Al has been associated with Oysterband for over 30 years as producer and stand-in guitarist. Al joined the band in 2013.

 

Between them, the trio play a variety of instruments and will be performing a range of songs and tunes from over the years, from each of their back catalogues, alongside new songs and traditional numbers.

 

So whilst one chapter may have come to an end, another is just beginning: The Song Goes On!
