Washington Irving

Washington Irving draw influence from the likes of The Pogues, The Waterboys The Arcade Fire, and The Decemberists. They make loud raucous folk/pop that never fails to win over fans of any genre. They’ve been busy touring across the UK and writing their debut album – which they’re currently recording.

Those who have been lucky to have been treated to their energetic live shows will not be surprised to find here a band on the cusp of serious national recognition, following confidently in the footsteps of acts like Broken Records and The Phantom Band. Their closing set on the Square Stage on Saturday night will leave you fired up for the night ahead.
