The Vagaband

Hailing from the badlands of East Anglia and mixing country, blues, swing and rock n roll, The Vagaband are far more than the sum of their very considerable parts. A blistering band who serve up traditional roots music with an up to the minute feel, they have wowed audiences across the country rocking stages at festivals including Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party and Bestival. Ever soulful, their unique blend of toe-tapping country blues is flavoured with a dash of jazz, a hint of ska and healthy spoonful of hand clapping, foot stomping musical mayhem. Their sound features a rich array of instrumentation including fiddle, mandolin, pedal steel guitar, sax, trumpet, banjo, squeezebox and piano. Combining strong original compositions with crowd pleasing classics, the band never fail to deliver.
