The Countrymen are a Cornish Folk Rock Harmony Group from Launceston.
Five seasoned musicians with tight four-part harmony vocals and a token Cornishman. With a relaxed
and light-hearted presentation style they take the audience on a journey through the history and
culture of Cornwall, featuring their own arrangements of traditional and contemporary songs, as well
as original material. Interspersed with the occasional pop cover to lighten the mood when required,
there is no mistaking that to a man, they love their county with a passion.
Expanded section
Now in their fifth year, they have been becoming increasingly popular across both Devon & Cornwall
with appearances on both radio and TV and numerous festival appearances including The Falmouth
International Sea Shanty Festival, The Rock Oyster Festival, Falmouth Week, Bridport Folk Festival,
Little Orchard Festival and Looe Saves The Day.
2022 will see the band take on a third concert tour of both Cornwall and Devon entitled “Songs of
Hope” which the band feels is an appropriate name for the times we currently live in.
“If you get the chance to see these guys (The Countrymen) in concert then take it, you will not
be disappointed”
