THE VAGABAND's soulful, rustic approach to their music makes their extraordinary blend of Americana, toe-tapping folk-jazz and soulful rock a unique proposition in an age where music is often presented in a way that is too studied, too knowing and somewhat safe.
Their musicianship means that consummate band-leader José McGill can rely on the band for sturdy backing as well as stellar improvisation for the fantastic home-grown repertoire and the inspired cover versions too.
The Vagaband are designed to be lapped up in huge gulps by an audience that likes to have all their musical needs satisfied and their dancing shoes cajoled into action as well. They are nigh-on impossible to dislike. Heroes in their home town, walk with them as they take on the world.
"The Vagaband - proof that the devil doesn't always have the best tunes...stunning." - Q Magazine
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, The Vagaband have wowed audiences across the country over the last couple of years rocking tents and 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. Among the instruments they play are fiddle, mandolin, pedal steel guitar, sax, trumpet, banjo, squeezebox and piano all built around players who between them have over 50 years experience on the road. Combining strong original compositions with crowd pleasing classics, The Vagaband never fail to deliver – it’s all killer no filler!
