RUM BUFFALO

fornicating with rhythm and melody. Mingling many genres, they blend blues, pop-rock and space punk with filthy synths and epic horn lines to rock the party like no other act. With their Upcoming debut Album, “Bloodmoon”, coming soon, the band are aching to bring their New show to bristol before the records release on 28th May.

Since their formation, their jetpowered live show has stormed the UK live music scene, performing to 10,000 on the Truth stage at Glastonbury as well as Boomtown Fair, Shambala, Wilderness, Buskers Bern and dozens of other festivals. Their unique performances border on the surreal, with three-piece horn section, vaudevillian costume, and fire performance brought together by flamboyant singer, guitarist and front-man, Jake Stevens.

Their powerful sound features a unity of purpose which is impossible to resist, as the band perform Houdini-esque musical contortions in perfect unison.

The 8-piece band have toured the world, with performances in Iceland, Switzerland, France, Turkey and Malta, along with a string of gigs in New York City, which included a show at Manhatten's Rockwood Music Hall.
