Home Service

Home Service is back on the road with Bob Fox at the helm alongside Graeme Taylor’s fiery lead guitar and their trademark stirring brass section. Their music blends tradition with pulsating folk-rock and trenchant brass to create their own unmistakable sound. Home Service was originally formed in 1981 from the creative nucleus of the Albion Band line-up that had produced the classic Rise Up Like the Sun album. They went on to produce three albums in the mid-eighties, including the ground-breaking Alright Jack and The Mysteries, featuring their music for the celebrated National Theatre trilogy. One of the great voices of British folk song, Bob Fox joined Home Service in 2023 following the departure of John Tams, making his debut at Broadstairs Folk Week the same year. In 2024, the band returned to touring and released a new live album, A Live Transmission, their first to feature Bob Fox.
