The People's Friend Band

  • Newcastle, England, ST5 5BG (map)

The People’s Friend Band’s sound is a thrilling maze of unpredictable twists and turns, veering wildly from tender, childlike melodies to explosive catharses. Defying categorization, their style conjures echoes of Lee Hazlewood's dark whimsy, The (early) Stranglers' punkish artistry, Can's Krautrock experimentation, Cardiacs' avant-garde eccentricity, and the classical innovations of Schubert and Stravinsky, all filtered through a Soft Machine-esque psychedelic lens – yet somehow, it all coalesces into a uniquely mesmerizing sound that's entirely their own. Their residencies at Camden Town’s legendary Dublin Castle have become a thing of legend. Come and find out why.
