Brown Wimpenny
Brown Wimpenny are an 11-piece folk ensemble based in south Manchester.
Described by The Quietus as a source of “energy, eccentricity, communion and joy”; they weave traditional music, from the British Isles and beyond, into a web of jigs, reels, hornpipes, drones, dense textures and choral harmonies.
Despite their lack of formal musical releases, Brown Wimpenny have already featured at this year’s Green Man Festival, Cambridge Folk Festival and Northgate Folk Festival; sold-out five Manchester headline shows; and performed at renowned venues like Factory International and The Broadside Hacks Folk Club in London.
While all being involved in various classical, experimental, contemporary noise, post-punk, and electronic music projects, these young musicians are now poised to carve their slice of the scene from which to expand this big trad experiment.
