“The Spinal Tap of folk bands!” hail from St Helens, and have become famous for recording songs about Lancashire, technology and British culture.

Since forming in 2007, they have become local heroes, touring with Paddy McGuinness, playing Glastonbury twice and playing live studio sessions at BBC 6Music for avid Hotpots fan Steve Lamacq.

The band have had real ales named after them and have firmly reinstated the conga as an essential part of everybody’s good night out!

Their new album Crust For Life is released on Monday, with brand new tracks  including The Wigan Church Of Pies, I’m Going to Poundland and Wowzers Me Trousers.
