“From Mersea Island in Essex, young new act, Wilswood Buoys are currently cutting their name into the UK underground scene. Mixing trad folk, with modern acoustic pop, the band have a really unique sound that’s also familiar and accessible.

Formed in summer 2017, starting out as just a couple of mates having a jam things quickly escalated into writing music. Both of the buoys had a completely different upbringing in terms of musical styles and this led them down a path of intertwining many genres into one, to form a raw and fresh alt/folk island sound, with catchy riffs and big choruses.”
ARMOURED MAN
Armoured Man are a multi-instrumental folk duo from the flatlands of East Anglia. Rooted in the storytelling traditions of folk songwriting, Armoured Man’s sound fuses English and Celtic folk with elements of alternative rock and the nervy energy of post-hardcore.
