woah! Sheelanagig are back in Appledore! With Kozna in support.
‘What a joy...a good night out guaranteed’ – Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2
Sheelanagig have been whipping up a storm of foot-stomping, roof-raising, high-energy live folk for nigh on twenty years. With an arsenal of strings, soaring flute, pounding drums and a sprinkle of fairy dust they spin melodies that have set feet flying all across the globe. Their shows are a heady mix of raucous dance medleys and thoughtfully crafted original pieces feverishly brimming with fire, flair and finesse. Floors tremble and windows rattle in their presence; these rapturous minstrels are not to be missed under any circumstance.
Drawing deep from a bountiful well of European folk traditions, from medieval melodies to modern grooves, from baroque to folk-rock, Sheelanagig’s irresistible alchemy makes it impossible to stand still. Their infectious energy and mischievous stagecraft are matched only by their impeccable musicianship—delighting festival crowds and intimate venues alike.
‘The musicianship is tight and intense’ – Songlines
Konza went down a storm opening for Mad Dog Mcrea and therefore they are back by very poular demand! Expect more of their eastern gypsy beats and balkan bangers.
