Amazing Blondel was what might be called a renaissance-folk-rock band. The band was formed by three British multi-instrumentalists with an interest in old music and period instruments: John David Gladwin (lute, cittern, double bass, oboe), Terry Wincott (harmonium, pipe organ, cittern, crumhorn, recorders, flute, tabor pipe, ocarina, guitar), and Edward Baird (guitar, percussion, guitern). Generally, the rock elements took a back seat to vocal harmonies and delicate arrangements in a kind of troubador style.
These are photos from concerts where Amazing Blondel played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
