Keston Cobblers Club

Hailing from Bromley, Kent, U.K. and having a name influenced by an 18th hundred years violinist cobbler whom experienced a penchant for dance in public areas, Keston Cobbler’s Golf club are a modern folk-pop collective known for his or her invigorating usage of organic devices and feel-good summer time melodies. The group was created in ’09 2009 by siblings and multi-instrumentalists Matthew and Julia Lowe, with good friend and multi-instrumentalist Tom Nice. Spending the next years obtaining their audio on several demos and spending so much time around the London gig circuit, the ensemble was ultimately completed with the addition of tuba participant Bethan Ecclestone and drummer Harry Stasinopoulos. The general public first got a thorough flavor of their sound using the 2010 digital EP Welcome towards the Golf club, released via impartial label Beatnik Geek Information. 2012 saw the discharge of their debut full-length for the label, One, for Terms (once more, a digital-only launch). The record was documented in the Lowe house and exemplified the quintet’s interest for traditional folk music, laced with modern pop melodies and harmonies. The record received rave testimonials as well as the group was praised because of their versatility and innovative method of songwriting. They quickly implemented up with several EPs; 2013’s A Picture of A lot and 2014’s A Pocket Guideline to Escaping, even while generating an ever-growing group of fans and ongoing compliment from BBC Radio DJ’s Bob Harris, Steve Lamacq, and Dermot O’Leary. The music group then authorized with TriColour Information and released their sophomore full-length work, Wildfire, in 2015. The recording was commended because of its nostalgic sound palette, even while incorporating smooth production techniques using the slight usage of consumer electronics alongside organic instrumentation; learning to be a bold exemplory case of the resurgence of folk and advancement of neo-folk music in the 2010s. Keston Cobbler’s Golf club promoted Wildfire having a countrywide tour and came back in 2017 using their third record, Nearly Home. The discharge boasted a far more simplistic method of their songwriting and was once more praised because of its eclectic and innovative usage of assorted devices.
