HOLY FOLKS!

Bio:

The last thing the music world need is more shite...

Holy Folks are a band From Aberdeen in the North East of Scotland. Folk influenced Pop Rock music and High Energy live shows are what they do. But now we dont play gigs that often.

Neither Cult Classic or Best Seller, Holy Folks formed in Late 2005. Matthew O'leary & Stewart Ross are two local Aberdeen loons playing "interesting" music that has been discribed as 'Acoustic Pop' & 'Antifolk'. In the past they have supported fine musical acts such as Aberfeldy, Dufus, Kitchen Cynics, Lach, Chris T T, Frank Turner, Mia Riddle - and were also part of the Beautiful Cosmos: Tribute to Ivor Cutler.

Back in 1962, Bob Dylan wrote "Now it dont seem to me quite so funny/What some people are gonna do for money/There's a brand new gimmick everyday/Just to take somebodys money away", now you can download him singing it for just 79p.
