The United Stöats of America take the essence of bluegrass, rockabilly and skiffle, and add some rock solid drumming and a gallon of cider. They transform other people’s songs – which they say are really only “rollicking hillbilly tunes ruined by being played with the wrong instruments” – into something totally unique.
The Strums play masterful semi-acoustic versions of many of your favourite songs, from Crosby Stills and Nash to Jessie J! The four band members are quality musicians playing quality music, showcasing guitar mastery and flawless harmonies honed from years of experience playing professionally within the music business.

The Swinghearts are a close-harmony swing trio, inspired by the music, look and feel of vintage girl groups from the 1940s and 50s. Performing the most popular songs from the period, whatever the occasion they’re guaranteed to ‘Bring the Swing’!
