A double header from two extremely vibrant, vivacious and brilliant touring folk-rock bands!
DRIVEN SERIOUS
Based in the North-East around Newcastle and Durham, Driven Serious is undoubtedly one of the most engaging, energetic, original live folk-rock bands in the UK today. They have released two acclaimed albums, and EP. All available on all streaming platforms. Stunning videos are there to see on youtube.
Driven Serious new album: “Look On These Works is an incredibly engaging listen, whether it’s the monumental sounding strings that carry us through this adventure, or the war-like drums at the start of the title track, it’s an impressive experience.” – Narc
Driven Serious performance: ” I suppose you could file Driven Serious under the banner of folk-rock; but they are so much more than that. They have a vibrancy that you can virtually see thrumming off them when they play, passionate and with the hand-brake well and truly off, and with a vibe that has had people likening them to The Levellers to The Pogues to The Smiths to The Wonderstuff” – The Crack
THE CAPTAIN’S BEARD
