"A fusion of genres, taste and talent in this youthful exciting 'folk-rock' band!"
fRoots: June 2009 review of Intro CD; "Lots of good ideas here, heaps of rhythmic trickery, bags of oomph and crossing of ethnic styles. You can see the potential, go for it...".
To order a CD.
The QP are seven talented musicians who play an exciting mixture of traditional and original numbers, ranging from acoustic songs to Klezmer influenced folk-rock. They use their individual backgrounds in folk, jazz, funk, rock, blues, to give original and exciting live performances. The band has many years of festival experience under its collective belt with each member active in other groups as well as The QP.
The QP 2008/2009 gig list includes the following major UK festivals; Beverley, Bromyard, Ely, Godiva, Warwick, Sidmouth, Spratton, Shrewsbury, Towersey.
"Forget the “X-Factor”, try the “QP-Factor”. This band rocks!"
"The QP are a young but very professional outfit, I have booked them for Warwick twice and they went down a storm. This could be their year, so book them while they are still available."
Dick Dixon, Warwick Folk Festival
"Forget the 'X-Factor', try the 'QP-Factor'. This band rocks!"
Keith Donnelly
"I was very impressed by your music. You have a fantastic commitment and attitude to it. It was quite infectious. You have a great raw talent and I am SO looking forward to having you on the big stage at Spratton"
Mark Osbourne, Spratton Folk Festival
"The QP gave a fantastic performance. For many in the audience, seeing these talented young musicians in action was a new experience and by the end of the set the QP had them in the palms of their hands. While the English summer rain pounded down outside the marquee, we were enjoying a fantastic party of lively folk-rock and klezmer and some beautiful singing. Definitely a must-see, must-hear band."
Pete Willow, Organiser Godiva Festival Folk Concert 2008
"There were hundreds of them - they filled the studio wall to wall and made a damn good noise. I'd book them before they get famous"
Genevieve Tudor, BBC Radio Shropshire
"Talented! Young! Good Looking! Bastards!!"
Harvey Andrews
"There's a real buzz about this lot. An English Folk/Rock/Jazz/Funk band with the balls to match any. They played a packed house at Warwick last year. Book them but be careful who you follow them with!"
Andrew Sharpe, Steamchicken

Thank you for a great concert in Harbury on Tuesday 12th February supporting Eleanor McEvoy, Tim Edey, Brendan Power and Lucy Randall.
The music was awesome from both bands. You could tell by the atmosphere how much your performance was appreciated. It was a privilege for us to host such fantastic artists in our Village Hall.
We raised £274.28 from the bar and collection, and this has been donated to the Alzheimer's Society. Cheers, Doug.
