Harry Oakwood's eclectic mix of styles provides a fresh sound blending the authenticity of The Band in it's Last Waltz heyday with the introspective echo of Neil Young, Simon and Garfunkel and Ron Sexsmith. Soaring three part harmonies, accomplished musicianship and inspiring songwriting serve this London based band well when they deliver live performances of a gravity not often seen.
After Tim Minchin came to see them he promptly chose them as his support act advising his half a million twitter followers "If you get the chance to see Harry Oakwood, take it".
Phantom Limb echo Minchin's sentiments and defer to Harry's men as their chosen support act explaining "finally we have a band we really appreciate to support us".
Irwin Sparkes (The Hoosiers) believes that Harry Oakwood is "THE most important band in London/music right now".
Americana-uk said of their last PL show: "Whoever was responsible for booking the support band Harry Oakwood deserves special praise. Their Band/Felice Brothers swagger complimented the soulfulness of Phantom Limb perfectly and their E.P. is pretty damn good as well."
