Good Habits
Great to welcome back dynamic Indie-folk band Good Habits to the the Fringe.
With vocals, cello, accordion, synths and drums at their core, they carve out a sound that’s virtuosic, cinematic and unapologetically fun – a blend of folk-ish storytelling, groove-driven energy and existential hope.
Initially a duo – Good Habits are now a trio with the addition of a drummer supercharging their already dynamic live show with a rhythmic drive to become a vibrant, optimistic collision of stories, songs and sheer musical joy.
“Strong songwriting, pin-precision vocals, hard rocking accordion and great acoustic grooves…musicianship at its 21st century best."
Tom Robinson BBC Radio 6
“An infectious energy and joy that's impossible to resist” - FRUK

Lovely to welcome these boys back to the Fringe who have been performing here both man and boy and after a brief hiatus have relaunched with an expanded lineup.
The Cornish bluegrass outfit deliver music that’s punchy, precise and impossible to ignore. Born on the coast and raised on the road, they’ve built a reputation for lightning-fast picking, pristine vocal harmonies and an electrifying live show.
The boys have played hundreds of major festivals across the UK, Europe, Australia and the U.S., and built a reputation as one of the UK’s standout acts.
Known for their mix of traditional bluegrass roots and fresh original songwriting, their live shows are a blend of virtuosity, humour, and raw passion that leave crowds smiling and wanting more.
Big Band of Boom
Birmingham’s rock juggernaut; This 10-piece behemoth is set to redefine everything you know about heavy guitars and big-band brass! Chunky guitar riffs with a killer horn section, drawn from some of the best bands in Birmingham, the Big Band of Boom continue their meteoric trajectory. Known for an electrifying live-show BBOB have already graced some of the most prestigious festival stages at Boomtown, Twinwood, Camp Bestival and Shambala.
