An 11-piece folk juggernaut with a flair for the wild and the unexpected, Brown Wimpenny take traditional reels and turn them into something bigger, bolder, and utterly electric. Fiddles, hornpipes, and choral harmonies coalesce with dense textures and a web of drones for a raucous live experience that feels like ritual – half party, half transcendence. This is folk, but not as you know it.
