Nominated four times for BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 'Best Duo', much loved Yorkshire lasses Belinda O’Hooley and Heidi Tidow have been propelled into newfound fame for penning the theme tune to Sally Wainwright’s hit BBC1/HBO drama 'Gentleman Jack', earning them global admiration, appearances on TV, Radio 4 Woman’s Hour and concerts that sell out months in advance.

Exploring, considering and connecting subjects and stories in a distinctive, inventive and memorable way, delving into the mindscapes, passions and inner worlds of two highly individual autistic women, Belinda and Heidi’s boundless songwriting has been described by The Guardian as "exceptional" and "England's answer to The McGarrigles" and The Independent as "defiant, robust, northern, poetical, political folk music for the times we live in."
