Skinny Lister

Skinny Lister, hailing from the United Kingdom, have carved out a unique space in the contemporary folk landscape since their formation in 2009. Known for fusing traditional folk instrumentation with an invigorating, modern energy, the group has consistently earned a reputation for their rousing live performances and inventive songwriting. Their rich catalogue includes standout releases such as "Shanty Punk" (2023), and the critically acclaimed "A Matter of Life & Love" (2021).
