Biography:
‘Tucked somewhere between the music of Balkan enthusiasts Beirut and the rustic elegance of modern DIY folk’ (Folk Radio UK) – London-based Patch & The Giant are an enigmatic indie-folk band with geographical and musical roots from throughout the UK. With a core sound built around the union of vocals with violin, accordion, cello, flugelhorn and more, they together craft a sound which is ‘wholly immersing’ (Brum Notes Magazine) and a live presence described as ‘jubilant’ (For Folk’s Sake).
