3 Daft Monkeys at Penlee Park
Advertisement
Based in Cornwall but reaching across continents, 3 Daft Monkeys are a genre-defying folk-world four-piece powerhouse. We cannot wait to see them back in the park!
This independent band brings an original and electrifying mix of Eastern and Western influences to their music, crafting a bold, vibrant blend of styles. The band experiment with modern storytelling in a playful way, creating songs full of emotion and infectious energy. Combining Celtic and Cornish roots with fiery fiddle tunes, Balkan and Romani influences, punk-style sass and irresistible global rhythms, they whip audiences into a frenzy of emotions with every performance.
3 Daft Monkeys have recently released their brand-new album Information Camouflage. This highly acclaimed release has been described as “an optimistic, life-affirming whirlwind of earthy goodness” (Spiral Earth) and “an anarchic mix of punk-faced Cornish folk simmered in a rich sauce of Balkan exotica, full of wonders and mysteries” (SLAP mag). The band funded the album through a huge independent crowdfunding campaign, showing how deeply loved they are by their ever-growing global fan base.
Beloved on the festival scene, they’ve played main stages across Europe including Glastonbury (Avalon and Glade), Lorient Festival Interceltique (FR), Beautiful Days, Sidmouth Folk Festival, Shrewsbury Folk Festival, Boomtown, Fairport’s Cropredy Convention, Bearded Theory, Bern Buskers (CH), Costa Del Folk Ibiza, and Folk Segovia (ES), alongside support slots for The Levellers, Hawkwind, Oysterband and The Cat Empire. The band have been featured across European media — including a live concert screening on France 3 and appearances on Celtic TV — and interviewed on Radio Tres (Madrid) and Radio Balises (Brittany).
