We’re thrilled to welcome back Fossilheads Climate Crisis Cabaret. If you caught them at Urban Wild or SoGreenFest 2024, you’ll know exactly why we’re excited to see them return, armed with brand new songs alongside a few favourites we’ve been quietly hoping to hear again (and sing along to). 

FOSSILHEADS - a left-field, theatrical, satirical cabaret duo that deliver an awe-inspiring combination of musical dexterity, intellectual rigour, hilarity and just plain silliness that refuses to underestimate audiences. They’re on a musical mission to inspire listeners toward environmental action with their unique songs that really do put the “ooh” back into “existential doom”!

Here they are at SoGreenFest 2024

Joining Fossilheads, we have a wonderful line-up of local music: 

The Guillotine Union Boys - duo Sam Wise and Bo Gallows, playing full-throttle anarchist folk wired on gospel, rockabilly, and blues

Cath Watkins & Nic Bradford - well loved local duo playing traditional English folk, Klezmer, 50’s jazz and blues

Shanti Green - singing group sharing songs of solidarity, ecology and resistance.

Devin Valentine - Queer musician, activist and instrument maker weaving folk, punk and protest into songs for tender hearts and difficult times.
