The Mordekkers are amoung the most innovative live bands in the UK today. Based in southwest Wales, this unique four piece mix traditional and original folk tunes played on pipes and mandola, with fresh, modern drum and bass rhythms . The result is an energetic infectious groove that never fails to get audiences dancing. Pepino have a history of mascots that boasts a rubber voodoo monkey and gender confused rabbit/beercan Pepino is a tragi-comic never-come-of-age band. Blythe Pepino sings out from behind her piano leading the band, consisting of violin, cello, double bass and drums, on a surreal and whimsical journey through theatrical rock ballads, sailor song and vaudevillian pop. There's always something special prepared for the audience so keep your wits about you. Shona Foster: Quirky, mesmerizing and enchanting, Shona's dark, brooding and seductive voice soars over tantalizing and intricate arrangements of violin, percussion and bass, giving rise to a sound akin to Ella Fitzgerald and Tom Waits on Tim Burton's casting couch.
