About this Event

Leicester's own gypsy-folk bandits The Whiskey Rebellion are back in town, hosting a night of high-octane music with a rag-tag gathering of some of the best bands on the circuit. Teaming up with the indomitable pirate sea-shanty merchants Seas Of Mirth, and the hyper-energetic accoustic metalheads Inlak'esh, this night will feature a whopping six bands spread across two jam-packed stages, making this one event you literally cannot afford to miss. Get ready to dance yourself to death, as we give The Shed in Leicester an apocalyptic showdown of epic proportions, and give your eardrums the abuse they so richly deserve.

THE WHISKEY REBELLION:

From the deepest darkest jungles of Leicestershire, comes a band so full of vibrant gypsy-punk energy that there is not a man or woman alive who can keep themselves from dancing like an idiot to their anarchic, upbeat folk rhythms. Feature a blazing line up of banjo, mandolin, violin, accordion, guitar, bass, drums, and TWO super-sexy vocalists for the price of one, these hair-brained harlequins produce a sound that creeps up on your eardrums and throttles your unsuspecting brain from the inside out. From swinging sea-shanties, uptempo gypsy jams, crazy balkan polkas, soulful celtic folk medleys, all the way to blasting punk mashups and hard rocking power ballads, The Whiskey Rebellion make it a matter of pride to pack as much charisma and passion as they can into each and every sweat-laden performance
