The Dunwells - a successful Leeds-based indie-folk and Americana band - are appearing at the West End Centre in Aldershot on February 21 at 8pm.

Formed in Leeds in 2009, they take their name from brothers Joseph Dunwell (vocals) and David Dunwell (guitar, vocals).

They combine strong vocals, powerful melodies and heartfelt lyrics. Their debut album Blind Sighted Faith was released in 2012, following which they have released a further six albums and EPs.

​The Dunwells have found favour with audiences across the world, having toured extensively in the USA, Europe and the UK as well as having supported artists including Mumford and Sons and Elbow on UK tours.

They are passionate and prolific singer-songwriters who have written material for joint collaborations as well as other high-profile up and coming artists.

The Dunwells recorded live at ITV Studios in 2009 and performed on BBC Radio Leeds during the same year. In March 2010 the band released their self-funded debut single Elizabeth, which reached number 31 on the UK Indie Chart.

English singer-songwriter Tony Moore spotted the band while they were performing at The Bedford in London and invited them to perform at the 2011 Folk Alliance International in Memphis, Tennessee.

Blind Sighted Faith came out on St Valentine’s Day 2012 having been recorded at Willie Nelson’s Pedernales studio with producer John Porter.

In March 2012 The Dunwells played at various renowned venues and festivals, including opening for Mumford and Sons and playing South by Southwest.

George Drakoulias recorded and produced the band's next single So Beautiful. In August 2012 Blind Sighted Faith was re-released with the addition of So Beautiful and the band made their American network television debut, performing their song Follow The Road on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
