The Old Dance School


Birmingham's cinematic septet unleash their duelling fiddles, soaring brass crescendos, wind and vocal harmonies and earth-shattering grooves in a genre-busting live show that leaves audiences breathless. Their 2008 debut Based on a True Story was championed by BBC Radio 2's Bob Harris and five years, 50,000 miles, many dozen festivals and several trips to A & E later, their breakthrough album Forecast delivered a startling take on contemporary folk that is both firmly rooted and unashamedly forward-thinking. "Classical quality, jazz imagination, folk sensibility, rock/roots energy... Masterful." The Scotsman
