Sunbird Records presents Ribble plus special guests CJay and Dan Hestor.Ribble - two Northern men, a fiddle, a guitar, and a large beard. So far, so what? Well, add in a 90s drum synth, some mighty arrangements of meaty fiddle tunes, some songs, some wrong turns, battle scars earned busking the streets of Salisbury, a barrowload of end-of-the-pier banter and the feeling that your mad rum-soaked uncle is roaring at you to dance on the tables, then you’re getting close to what Ribble is about.
Averaging over 80 gigs a year, these splendid gentlemen have been invited to play Boomtown, Purbeck Folk, Victorious, Rustic Stomp, New Forest Folk, Wimborne Folkie, Wessex Folkie amongst many other festivals, and have been main support to some serious names on the circuit including Andy Cutting, Mad Dog Mcrea, Man the Lifeboats, Gerry Colvin and many more.
For those of you of a more delicate or sophisticated nature, please rest assured we can reign in our more feral impulses to produce a smooth background sound for your wedding or garden party. A quick perusal of the list of previous dates will show how much experience we have built up across a range of engagements - corporate events, private parties and all aspects of weddings (we behave ourselves whilst playing the bride down the aisle, we read the room and provide appropriate background music during the drinks reception, and we tear it up in the evening do!)
