EBB and Spriggan Mist

EBB were a band, the Erin Bennett Band, who played pop-rock. But they kept straying off into Prog Rock and ruining it.

So they finally listened to their own voices and went full Prog. You couldn’t get a happier bunch of puppies.

Writing and rehearsing within an arts collective makes impromptu, noisy jam sessions a little easier than, perhaps, for those who live with intolerant neighbours, families, dogs and hamsters.

The resulting music performance and, these days, video and live actors, is best described as bespoke, rather than pleasingly generic. In other words, one likes it or one doesn’t. Rest assured, the band members themselves will be having a great time!

Living in Scotland but hailing from all around the world, the band get on with each other irritatingly well. Also, they can’t wait to meet you!

EBB ARE:
Erin Bennett (Guitars, Lead Vocals, Trumpet), Suna Dasi (Backing Vocals, Synths), Bad Dog (Bass), Nikki Francis (Hammond, Piano, Synths, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet),
Anna Fraser (Drums, Percussion), Kitty Biscuits (Backing Vocals, Percussion, Spoken Word Poetry)

The surprise hit of HRH Prog XI at The O2 Academy in Sheffield in April 2022, Spriggan Mist are certainly made a noise on the summer festival scene.

With charismatic singer Fay Brotherhood weaving her inimitable lead vocals over a backdrop of driven guitars, saxophones, recorders and whistles and even a crumhorn!, Spriggan Mist offer something quite different. Often billed as a pagan folk rock band, it’s always been difficult to pigeon hole ‘The Spriggs’ but since HRH Prog they  have found themselves labelled as Energetic Progressive Folk , injecting a fresh exciting and welcome change to the prog and festival scene.

Their shows have been likened to classic Hawkwind and Arthur Brown. Spriggan Mist released their 6th studio Recorded album ‘Isambard The Mechanical Dragon’ in April 2022 to much critical acclaim.
