Event information
Southbound is a high-energy, genre-defying supergroup serving up a bold fusion of British folk, virtuosic improvisation, big beats, and gnarly grooves. Based in South-East London, the band unites some of the capital’s top-tier players from the trad, jazz, and indie scenes to create something truly original: massive trad with a metropolitan twist.
Known for their electrifying live shows, Southbound blend intricate folk melodies with strident horn lines and genital tingling basslines. Their sound is as thrilling as it is hard to pin down—folk-jazz, and Celtic fusion, filtered through brass-driven mayhem. The lineup features: Tom Hughes (Whistles), Lewis Chinn (Sousaphone), Louis Suc (Saxophone), Matt Seddon & Charlie Mellon (Trombones), and Jonah Philips (Drums). Whether on a festival stage or tearing up a late-night session, Southbound delivers an unforgettable, genre-smashing experience.
“A genre-bending folk supergroup, fusing trad roots with jazz heat and dancefloor energy.”
