With multiple awards, including the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for ‘Best Live Act’, they have captivated audiences across the UK and beyond, and this tour promises an unmissable event for both long-time fans and new audiences alike.
Fronted by Damien Barber, they will feature an exceptional line-up of musicians, including Ben Griffith (Drums), Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne (Squeezeboxes & Vocals), Hugh Vincent (Bass) and Alix Shepherd (Keys).
“We’re excited and thankful to be celebrating 25 years in the business,” said Barber. “This tour will be a real celebration of the Demon Barbers’ journey so far, and we can’t wait to share some of our earlier music again, as well as our better known tracks, with audiences across the UK.”
With 25 years of genre-defying performances, The Demon Barbers are renowned for their pioneering integration of traditional folk dance with more modern styles, particularly Hip Hop & Breakin’. Some outstanding clog dancers, including Tiny Taylor, Laura Connolly & Sarah Davenport, along with the dynamic, Leeds-based Hip Hop duo Chris Banks and Marie Mathias, well known for their acrobatic collaborations with The Demon Barbers’ theatre company, Breaking Tradition.
Together, they will bring an electrifying mix of traditional music, Folk & Hip Hop dance, and unforgettable energy to audiences across the UK.
