A Band Of Buriers is an English alternative folk band that blends folk and alternative rap elements together. The band consists of James P Honey, an accomplished alt rapper, singer and poet and Jamie Romain, a classically trained cellist. Their melodic blend of cello and acoustic guitar combined with a beautiful female backing choir compliments the abstract and imaginative poetry of their lyrics, resulting in grand songs fractured with a fragile beauty.

‘A Band Of Buriers concoct a curious, bewitching broth which moans with mournful strings and minor-chord guitars. what’s so outstanding about their music is James P Honey’s vocal delivery: steeped in ‘alternative-rap’ culture and with a firm belief in blending genres.‘ Rough Trade

‘Like a modern-day Leonard Cohen, A Band of Buriers offer a pick ‘n’ mix bag of tricks: epic, cello-accompanied spoken word; intense, ukulele-laced folk; a troupe of backing singers ever dressed in white; and a Ronnie Scott’s residency.’ Volume Magazine
