In Autumn 2006 the Norfolk born singer-songwriter Lewis Garland pressganged
Bradley Blackwell (Double Bass), Drew Coleman (Mandolin, Guitar, Concertina) and Ben Wiffen (Clarinet, Percussion) into his services on board the good ship ‘Kett Rebellion’.
Over the last year the group have shared many an adventure...
Glastonbury 2008, The Big Green Gathering, support for Bowerbirds, Shearwater, Nizlopi, Faustus, Devon Sproule, Lau and 2006 Mercury Award nominated artist Lou Rhodes... luckily they have all managed to avoid scurvy to date.Lewis Garland and the Kett Rebellion have been highly acclaimed for their energetic yet intimate performances, the group’s folk tinged sound providing the perfect complement to Lewis’s intricate, often caustic, wordplay.
What others have said...
"energetic folk-klezmer linked with clever wordplay "
The Coventry Evening Telegraph, Oct 2007

BBC Radio Coventry and Warwickshire
"Really thoughtful lyrics"
Karine Polwart (winner of 2005 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards best album, best emerging artist and best original song)
"These young chancers from Coventry bucked the trend, turned down the PA and the stage and set up right in the middle of the barn!!! The folly of youth I thought - but then they started to play, people hushed and were treated to what in my mind was the best performance the Barn has seen so far. These guys are ridiculously good and gave a flavour to folk that I will want to taste for years to come" Promoter (Henley-on-Thames)
