Event information
Formed in 2012 Headsticks have built a substantial fanbase and earned a fine reputation for their very own brand of folk roots infused punk rock'n'roll.
Having done high profile tour supports with the likes of New Model Army, Steve Ignorant’s Crass (Full European Tour), Terrorvision, Ferocious Dog, and The Men They Couldn't Hang to name a few, as well as supporting a wide range of artists transcending genres Headsticks continue to receive equally high praise from the pillars of punk, folk, roots, and rock, with Louder Than war even describing them as ' Punk Rock Steeleye Span'.
Four Studio albums, 2 Studio EP's, and a live Album have received stunning reviews, with Vive Le Rock magazine describing the band as 'A breath of fresh air', while Louder Than War encourage you to 'Get out there and see these guys; talk about them. Get the revolution started!', and several publications have made their various albums their 'Album Of The Year' in the past.
The Ring Master Reviews regard the band as ‘One of the most irresistible and essential punk’n’roll adventure’ and whether it’s the full throttle, heart pounding stompers, the anthemic singalongs, or the haunting acoustic ballads, Headsticks deliver an experience like no other band, built on honesty, integrity, bloody hard work, and a passion for what they do and for what they believe, all delivered with a wry sense of humour.
With a busy festival schedule, headline shows a plenty, and being constantly in demand for high profile supports, the band will release studio album number 5, as yet untitled, in the coming months as they look to continue on their steady trajectory, and as they continue to say it like it is!"
