Bellowhead

Bellowhead are an English folk band originally brought together by John Spiers and Jon Boden. The 11 piece band plays traditional English dance tunes and songs, but with a considerable twist. Riotous, rousing and sharp-suited, this contemporary and unique band includes, drums and a four-piece brass section. The band describes itself as:

Merging a joyous, uplifting cacophony of sound with a slightly sinister, distorted collision of music hall, Lotte Lenya, Robert Wyatt and pure theatre.
