Ferris & Sylvester are a husband-and-wife duo who have spent the last 10 years writing, recording and performing music together, building an ever-growing and fiercely loyal fanbase. Since meeting as solo musicians at London’s blues joint Spiritual Bar, Issy Ferris & Archie Sylvester have released albums and EPs through their label ‘Archtop Records’ and toured the globe playing festivals and selling out venues. They have married and grown a family. Straddling the worlds of folk, blues, soul and Americana, it is honest storytelling that is at the centre of all they do.

The duo’s debut EP ‘Made In Streatham’ was released in 2018 and found them topping Spotify’s UK Virals chart and packing their car for a year of touring. They were coined as Rolling Stone’s ‘Americana Acts To Watch’ in 2019 and praised for their ‘immaculate harmonies’ by BBC Introducing. Their debut album ‘Superhuman’ was released in 2022, debuting at No.1 in the UK’s Official Blues Chart and picking up ‘UK Album of The Year’ at the 2023 UK Americana Awards. Following the birth of their son in Nashville, the duo released their second studio album ‘Otherness’ in 2024, which topped both the UK’s Official Folk and Americana charts and received top reviews from Rolling Stone and Classic Rock. Today, Issy and Archie have welcomed their daughter and have a new album due for release this year. They are working with the baby and pregnancy charity, Tommy’s, and are proud patrons of The Music Venue Trust in the UK. As their story continues to unfold, they remain the driven, joyful souls that met in the blues bar a decade ago.
