Liam Vincent & The Odd Foxes

About the show

Liam Vincent & The Odd Foxes are an explosive contemporary folk-rock band whose energetic performances are built on defiant messages, catchy tunes and seamless musicianship. With a line-up consisting of established musicians from across the UK’s folk and rock scene, it’s no surprise that this dynamic and experienced live band are making friends wherever they go.

The band play a style of explosive, infectious folk rock that leaves you feeling both uplifted & emotional, while wanting more. On the surface, much of their music comes across as bouncy and joyous, but it's only when you dive into the lyrics that you see that these are songs that show huge dissatisfaction with some of the aspects of the world we find ourselves living in in the 21st Century.’ Their influences are quite clear. There’s a lot of Levellers, Waterboys, Saw Doctors in their mix but also a deal of more traditional Irish music too.

In the live arena the band really excel, with a quality of musicianship that is second to none, playing captivating music that delivers a message. When the drums kick in and the mandolin and fiddle weave along behind the guitars, creating the driving rhythm that typifies the band's sound, you won’t be able to resist tapping your feet or getting up to dance.

To open the show we are very lucky to have, all the way from Australia, singer-songwriter Snez who has spent the last 15 years travelling round Australia with her music, and who is now making her first UK tour. Her songs are acutely observed and often deeply personal, her authentic, original style is poignant and melodic, focusing heavily on storytelling to create a strong emotional connection with the audience.
