Goblin Band are a four piece English trad folk band based in London. With harmony singing and a range of folk instruments, they deliver an unruly alternative expression of English traditional music.
Growing cult favourites on the thriving UK folk circuit who set their stall on re-energising timeless, much-journeyed songs for an ever-growing new community of enthusiasts, the band are fresh from a nationwide Broadside Hacks label tour last autumn, a trip to New Orleans for Folk Alliance festival in January. Brought together by a shared desire to recover the radical and progressive energy at the core of traditional music, the band are heavily inspired by the folk pastimes of Britain and abroad. Their seasonal headlines for winter solstice and May Day are now regular, sold-out events. with their performance at EartH next month their grandest occasion to date.
Their latest single ‘Clyde Water/Go From My Window’ marks the band’s first release since November 2025 live album ‘A Loaf of Wax’, which increased the band’s growing list of press/radio backers to include The Quietus, MOJO, The Guardian, CRACK, BBC Radio 2’s Folk Show, KLOF, Tradfolk, Shindig!, Far Out, and more.
