Trenchfoot have established an enviable reputation as one of the fastest emerging folk rock acts in Wales

Steeped in stories real and imagined, it’s not a sad sound though, with emotionally, powerful lyrics, foot-tapping rhythms, driving bass lines, rousing sing-a-long choruses and an Americana folk style with their vocals and harmonies.

The band performs original, contemporary songs, have four versatile lead vocalists in Lorraine King, Phil Jenkins, Terry Thomas and Jeff Singer: turning their hands to a multitude of instruments; ukulele, banjoitar, accordion, mandolin, acoustic guitar, mandocello and harmonica. Seimon Pugh Jones and Andy Edwards lay the foundation of the performance on drums and bass.
