Originally used as a name to credit the musicians hired to accompany <a href="spotify:artist:5rilpZJIb2NWJZVGtCdg6u">Shirley Collins</a> in 1971, the Albion Band later became a group in their own right. Bass player <a href="spotify:artist:5Jw86QkrJ4s9f6j37t3JIr">Ashley Hutchings</a>, who had previously founded and left both <a href="spotify:artist:2LIdnZDzySb04oH40be1fR">Fairport Convention</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4OrrjMGltjy6ojX6034f8u">Steeleye Span</a>, is the driving force behind this group. The members use acoustic and electric instruments to create a folk-rock sound something like <a href="spotify:artist:2LIdnZDzySb04oH40be1fR">Fairport Convention</a>'s, but usually more typically English in character. They have existed as the Albion Band, <a href="spotify:artist:0v4Bw7MvgL4SrpGAxPDBry">the Albion Country Band</a>, and the Albion Dance Band. ~ Steve Winick, Rovi
