THE LINE UP SO FAR...

BUFFO'S WAKE - At last, we finally host this twelve-legged beast armed with accordions, violins and a bucket full of gusto. They waltz, tango, mosh and kolo their way through a vast array of influences from Eastern European, Balkan and Russian folk, to punk rock and cabaret, telling tales of debauchery, deformity, zombies, incest and anatomy - making audiences dance late into the night in the process.

In their time together, they have toured all over the world, finding an inspired, confused, sweaty, and often very drunk reception everywhere they go.

Gypsy, Balkan and Klezmer Carnival Punks – with influences from Abba to Zappa, Buffo’s Wake are guaranteed to leave you dancing like you're possessed!

OHMIC BOLIDE - Brand new to the Scallywag family this Celtic club quartet will wow you with a cèilidh boom style collision of Celtic folk and electronic dance. Expect fiddle, accordion, Irish whistle, big bass, processed beats and anthemic topline female vocals.

Don't miss this very special performance from these fantastic players!

COUNTRY TIES - Scallywag Charlotte and her band of merry country folksters to open the evening with some thigh slapping, rip roaring tunes. A blend of traditional roots storytelling, country rock, and Americana from the Deep South (of England).

DJ BASSIE GRACIE - We welcome back our long friend of the scallywag family and phenomenal performance poet in her own right, the iconic Bassie Gracie who'll be mixing balkan beats with funk, hip hop and electro swing to create a finale to get your hips moving and dance floor pumping. She's a festival DJ regular having played storming sets at Glastonbury, Boomtown and Secret Garden Party to name a few.

DJ LORD DISORDERLY - The lord of the manor spinning his favourite reggae, cumbria, drum and bass and everything in between.

LAURA LOOPS - Pro hooper and massive friend of the party joins us for a very special xmas hula performance
