Forest Of Fools

Forest Of Fools |

Forest Of Fools’ unusual synergy of traditional instruments and broad ranging musical influence has seen the creation of an entirely new genre. Bringing an eclectic mash-up of folk, funk, punk and drum and bass to the table, we give you Jump-up Folk. With quirky time signatures and bass rocking drops, this new wave of unique compositions demands your attention and it’s easy to see why this band are rapidly being catapulted to the forefront of the festival circuit and underground music scene. Dancing though the musical ages and defying conformity of tradition, in the blink of an eye you’ll be whisked from the courtyards of Medieval England and delivered to the rave rooms of the 90’s to join the Junglist Massive. A must-see live band, delivering high energy party music to the masses which will leave you smiling like the Cheshire Cat and skanking until the sun comes up. | Gigmit

‘Daring to step outside of the established traditions of folk music and pioneering a sound that can only be described as “Jump-up Folk“, we have something here we think will excite you and your audience alike.
With influences ranging from Folk, Jazz and World Music to Funk, Drum & Bass and perhaps even a touch of the Classical; this music is spliced with cunning arrangements and intricate melodies. It´s a formula that can´t fail to move you.’  | Folk & Honey
