Date/Time

Saturday 22 April 2023 - 19.30

Location

Grayshott Village Hall

The Ocelots first played for us in August 2022 and made such an impact on our audience, we just had to have them back as soon as we could.

These guys are going places.

The Ocelots are 24 year-old twins Brandon and Ashley Watson. Although they were born and raised in Ireland, they currently live in Leipzig, Germany. They both play Guitar and Banjo and have beautiful singing voices. They also possess that natural Irish charm and wit that engages their audience. Ashley and Brandon have crafted their song writing and musical experiences together to produce a forceful blend of rich, sibling harmonies and bare, raw acoustic Folk.

Their music perfectly embodies the breezy effortlessness of early Bob Dylan and their harmonies bring to mind Simon & Garfunkel and The Everly Brothers.

They’ve had over 1.6 Million listens on Spotify and last time they played for us at Grayshott, we had a local artist (Roger Dellar), producing a live painting of them whilst they played!

The word is starting to get out and in May 2022, they were invited to perform (virtually), at the Folk International Alliance showcase event in Kansas City, USA. Since then, they’ve played for us at Grayshott Folk Club and all over the European mainland. They’ve been warmly embraced in Ireland too and are starting to appear at prestigious festivals all over the place.

This won’t be the last time you hear about The Ocelots… Their star is in the ascendant, for sure.

The Ocelots’ live set combines all that is great about Folk music, so come and be charmed and entertained by this charismatic duo.
