Stoked The Fire

This is our latest single and one we are super excited to share with you.

It’s fast, driven and built on banjo. We were inspired by some of our favourite bluegrass and Americana bands but still wanted it to feel like a proper TBP tune.

We are joined on the track by our great friend and even greater fiddle player Quantum Penguin.

About

Friends since school…

So yeah, we’ve been around a bit… Met in school, launched the first iteration of our band in year 9, and we’ve been building on our sound and performance since then!

Twenty years of pub gigs and festival shows in the West Midlands and across the UK.

Our current show is built on acoustic energy and driven banjo, with stomping rhythms and tight harmonies.
