The Don Bradmans' debut album "Ah'll Flamin' Well Kill Ya!" is available to buy via mail order! Paypal is on its way; in the meantime, it costs ten notes of the realm plus postage and packaging, so send cheques or postal orders of £11, payable to The Don Bradmans, to 4 Burry Cottages, West Street, Sompting, West Sussex, BN15 0AT; Rounder Records of Brighton have a few copies...or you could just ask us at one of our gigs.

Website up and running!

‘The Don Bradmans come across like a 21st-Century Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, with added festival kudos. It’s upbeat music with humour, aided by some great playing (including the immense Ben Jones of Twelve Stone Toddler) and an easy-going stage manner. They call it Chap Rock - I say: good work, gents!’
Latest 7, Brighton

Hello and welcome to The Don Bradmans page!

With the unique, genre-spanning blend of music they call chap rock, lively festival favourites The Don Bradmans have been astounding and entertaining crowds and gig goers from Inverness to Italy since 2002.
The DBs’ legendary live performances, witty song writing, and high-energy, innovative arrangements will propel you into their infectiously peculiar world.

'We split our sides at their original and eccentric brand of humour. The Don Bradmans' style will eventually be copied by others - originators of note. Excellent musicianship. This album will have everyone dancing. Highly recommended.' www.realfestivalmusic.co.uk

With notable performances at Glastonbury Festival, Big Green Gathering, Larmer Tree and Secret Garden Party amongst others under their belts, the Dons are guaranteed to get crowds of venue-bursting capacity dancing.
Their first album "Ah'll Flamin' Well Kill Ya!" is now available - and they're recording a second one.
