The Ramshackle Union Band
The Ramshackle Union Band of London town, peddle a fine line in stomping bluegrass-tinged-folk, playing with big heart and a free-spirited ethos. Heralded by NME as “woozy bluegrass for weary hearts and bleeding minds”, their sound is in debt to classic roots music, while feeling vital and fresh. Based around rich four-part harmonies, with raucous, tumbling rhythms and equal penchant for loverlorn heartbreak and giddy good times, they're fast rising as one of the most talked-about new folk bands around. Hard at work recording material for their new EP, and with a jam-packed gigging calendar, their wagon looks set only to accelerate further in 2011.
