The Black Smock Band grew organically out of a circle of musicians that first came together in 2010. Musically their roots are deep within the traditions of English folk music, though they combine this with a range of influences from which they have developed their own unique style. This reflects the band's character; their socialist political identity, their beautiful beardy-gay sexuality and their broad musical backgrounds. In authentic folk fashion they sing about their own lives and the social changes they are living through.
