Returning in 2026 with their first new album in 8 years, The Severed Limb bring their unique brand of skiffle and folk to What’s Cookin’. Championed by the likes of Steve Lamacq, Marc Riley and Andrew Weatherall, The Limb spent a decade building up a reputation as ‘the skiffle Clash’, but don’t let their name fool you. Expect harmonies and melodies aplenty from this acoustic 5-piece. What other band has played the Royal Albert Hall whilst still busking the streets of London? “Storming” The Independent
“Rampant and joyful” Steve Lamacq
“This blues drenched skiffle punk is exactly why we’re headed to the venue early” Q Magazine
Box River Junction spread delight with dazzling original tunes that draw from the deep wells of folk, blues, country and vintage rock 'n' roll. Forged in the wilds of Suffolk, the exuberant foursome go down like a fine ale in the backwoods boozers where they set boots stomping on ancient, creaky floors.
But attentive listeners will find more treasures lurking beyond the big choruses and eloquent, irresistible guitar licks.
Playful yet truth-telling lyrics mingle with nursery rhymes and ghosts of age-old melodies.
