Buffo’s Wake, Sun 19th October

Oct 17, 2014
-
Posted by Ben Bailey

Arguably confirming every Daily Mail reader’s prejudice about our fair city, Buffo’s Wake’s latest video sees the Brighton band on a debauched romp along the seafront, ending in violence, vomit and bus-stop cop sex. Having already played an impressive string of festivals and gigged in over 15 countries, the gypsy punks are now off on a fifty date tour of the UK, beginning and ending with shows in their hometown. Like demented circus freaks running riot at a Day of the Dead carnival, Buffo’s Wake blend Eastern European folk music with classical touches and a punky anything-goes sense of absurdity. Their debut album, fittingly released on Halloween, features its fair share of soaring violins, sinister vocals and rampant, rousing choruses. Slowing down is not an option.

Catch the band at one of these local shows:
Oct 19th – Northern Lights
Dec 4th – Mesmerist
Dec 20th – Gladstone
Dec 21st – Northern Lights
For a full list of tour dates go here.
