A band described as 'one of the most exciting new acts in ages' is coming to Carlisle later this month.

Earning the description from UK music publication Dork Magazine, British band Welly bring together a cacophany of escapist pop, indie-disco, punk, and DIY electronics.

The group's first single 'Shopping', a riotous love-letter to the UK high street, has been described as sounding like a combination of Oingo Boingo and Talking Heads.

Welly is quickly building a world of curtain-twitching storytelling.

Their recent single ‘Soak Up The Culture’ both sends-up and pays loving tribute to the Lads-On-Tour anthem, whilst ‘Deere John’ is a rollicking tableaux of marital strife and a lawn-mower.

With early support across BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X, and a run of sold-out shows and festivals, Welly are rallying a young audience likewise in search of something different, and something fun.

Tickets for the show on November 28 at The Brickyard cost £8.20, plus a £1.20 'booking fee', and are available here https://www.fatsoma.com/e/vu55shfw/welly.
