The Wurzels

The Wurzels are an English Scrumpy and Western band from Somerset, England, famed for their number one hit “The Combine Harvester” and top 10 hit “I Am a Cider Drinker”. They are known for using British West Country phrases “ooh arr!” and calling young people “young ‘uns” in songs such as “I Am a Cider Drinker” and “The Combine Harvester”  

Performing a career spanning set consisting of the hits, stories and jokes from a career lasting more than 50 years, The Wurzels continue to play over 100 sell-out shows and festivals every year. 

Their quintessentially West Country cover of Kaiser Chiefs’ ‘Ruby’ has been a massive show favourite of late, as well as their hip-hop version of the ubiquitous hit ‘Combine Harvester’.  

The Wurzels are regularly asked how long will they keep going. The band always respond that they intend to keep going whilst they enjoy performing – and that suits the rest of us just fine!
