Live music from the Goblin Band
Free event at 5pm
Goblin Band are an exuberant, barnstorming trad-folk quartet based in London.
Though firmly rooted in the traditional music of the British Isles, they draw widely on medieval and early music, as well as folk traditions from abroad. Goblin Band interpret folk songs in relation to the political upheavals of the past and present, and strives to make a space for new audiences to experience traditional music in a manner which is both riotously joyful and deeply sincere.
With harmony singing and a range of folk instruments, Goblin Band delivers an unruly alternative expression of English traditional music.
Goblin Band will perform in the bandstand at Folk Lore Kent’s Mayhem Fair, in Dane John Gardens.
The event is part of Canterbury Unlocked, a city-wide celebration.
