Chris Green and Sophie Matthews play English traditional songs and tunes in a thoroughly 21st-century kick-ass style. Using a blend of ancient instruments such as cittern, English bagpipes and shawm as well as modern folk instruments such as guitar, flute and piano accordion, they breathe new life into material from hundreds of years ago, making it fresh and relevant for a modern audience.  

Festive Favourites is GreenMatthews' first-ever 'best of' album, consisting of their favourite tracks from the albums A Victorian Christmas, A Medieval Christmas and A Brief History of Christmas.

Having sold out of CD copies of all three albums some time ago, Chris and Sophie thought a compilation of their favourite tracks from each would make a nice retrospective of their festive music. It also includes their Virtual Wassail from 2020!
