Hackney Colliery Band to perform at WOMAD Caceres

The East London collective are set to perform in Spain this weekend.

Hackney Colliery Band will be performing at WOMAD in Caceres, Spain. Playing May 13th, they’re bringing their larger-than-life live show to one of the world’s best festivals, complete with a genre-blending combination of brass, reeds, percussion and electronics. Since the release of their self-titled 2011 debut, Hackney Colliery Band have singled themselves out as one the UK’s most exhilarating live bands, bending and blending genres, instruments and minds with their impactful and individual sound. An unstoppable force in British music, they’ve performed at the official Closing Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics, played at the MOBO, BRIT and Mercury Awards, and previously collaborated with Madness and Amy Winehouse.
