Moore Moss Rutter is a contemporary folk music trio formed in the UK in 2009. The group consists of Tom Moore (violin), Archie Churchill-Moss (Melodeon), and Jack Rutter (guitar/vocals).[1] Their material is often developed from traditional English folk tunes and pieces of their own composition, which are heavily arranged. They incorporate folk music, 20th-century classical music, jazz, and elements of bluegrass.

They have also filmed a live set for Sky Arts, which was recorded backstage at the Cambridge Folk Festival. The trio also featured in BBC Four's 2012 documentary, 'Fairport Convention: Who Knows Where the Time Goes?', narrated by Frank Skinner.
