The Cornish Wurzells are three-piece Penzance-based tribute to Adge Cutler formed in 2006. The Cornish Wurzells have built up a big fanbase in Devon and Cornwall and have played at the Royal Cornwall Show, The Hall For Cornwall, Jethro’s Club as well as regular dates throughout the West Country - as well as getting radio airplay on Cornwall's local radio stations. The current line-up consists of founder member Russ Holland (banjo and vocals), Terry Pascoe (keyboard, guitars and vocals) and Tim Joslin (sousaphone and tuba). Russ used to live in Bath where he went to watch The Wurzels whenever they were gigging - and he started a band 30 years ago called The Swinging Udders - which sadly didn't last long. Russ was born in the same village as Cornish comedian Jethro, talks the same language (what happened was…), and as a result, The Cornish Wurzells have supported Jethro on numerous occasions and he has been adopted as an honorary member of the band. Terry is the newest member of the band, joining in the summer of 2009. He was a former member of The Wurzels (see Terry's Wurzelmania biog). After leaving The Wurzels in the 1980s, he worked for various cruise lines and sailed the world for twelve years playing piano/vocals on ships like the QEII. He was signed to Bramson’s Agency of Broadway for three years for resident position with the LA-based Royal Cruise Line. It was while working as musical director at Lyme Bay Holiday Centre in South Devon that he met Russ and The Cornish
