The last instalment of Mexican Dave Presents Folky Sh*t at the CiderBox of 2025, this time Christmas edition!
There will be festive shenanigans, mulled cider, the odd shanty and as always an incredible lineup:
B-Sydes
Modern folk that’s as powerful as it is personal.
Modern and authentic folk delivered with power, personality and purpose. B-SYDES (aka rising singer-songwriter Ben Sydes) has been capturing the hearts and minds of audiences since his first EPs and critically-acclaimed debut album ‘Constant Fictions’.
Having shared the stage with the likes of Frank Turner, Mark Chadwick (Levellers), Gaz Brookfield, Pet Needs, Ferocious Dog, Beans On Toast, Ben Ottewell (Gomez) and countless more, he’s honed his craft, found his true voice, and has set himself up to chase the many ambitions within his music.
FMI Clatters
FMI Clatters, as he is known on stage, has enchanted audiences with his blend of original songs, parodies and the odd sea shanty. He brings intrigue, humour and poignant lyrics that can tug at the heartstrings. Played on guitar, mandolin and voice with the assistance of an old tankard!
He has graced the line-up of several festivals. Glastonbury, Beautiful Days, Watchet, Here for the Music and OutCider festival, to name a few and has opened gigs for notable artists including; Mark Chadwick, Dan Donnelley and Jon Sevink, Will Varley, Gaz Brookfield, Three Daft Monkeys, The Leylines and Hobo Jones and the Junkyard Dogs. This has lead to two capacity gigs at the prestigious Bimble Inn and three slots at Glastonbury Festival.
Mexican Dave
Mexican Dave is a rising folk-punk artist based in Bristol. Following the release of his debut EP, Kinda Wasted, he has taken his energetic performances across the UK, playing everywhere from intimate pubs and cozy house shows to renowned venues and major festivals like 2000 Trees, Beautiful Days, Barnstomper and Here for the Music.
Mexican Dave has recently shared the stage with notable acts such as Black Water County, Nick Parker, Imprints, and Jake Martin, captivating audiences with his raw, heartfelt songs about mental health, wild nights out, and the ups and downs of navigating life.
+ More TBA and many many surprises waiting too!
