Banter

Banter are Nina Zeller, Simon Care, Tim Walker and Mark Jolley. Four fine musicians whose roots are firmly in the traditional English genre, but who enjoy stretching the limits - in what a lot of people refer to as 'the quirky Banter twist'. Formed in 2015, they immediately realised their common love for traditional English song and dance and began to mess around with it.

They gained popularity very quickly and were soon performing at many of the country's largest festivals, including Glastonbury. They also have their own festival in September, BANTERFEST!

Now firmly established as one of the UK's finest bands they recorded and released their fourth studio album 'Heroes' in 2024, which received rapturous reviews. Steve Best from Music Republic Magazine stated, "Heroes is one of the very best folk albums of 2024...a sure-fire winner".

Their live performances are brilliant - they play percussion, bass, fiddle, trumpet, melodeon and keyboard, PLUS four-part vocal harmonies.

Come along and be well and truly Bantered!
