SKIMMITY HITCHERS
Rising from the cider soaked floors of Dorset's back street boozers, the Skimmity Hitchers now roam the full girth of the
West Country and beyond. Bringing their dry and fruity blend of Scrumpy & Western music to venues, festivals and fairs,
these scrumpy swillin' reprobates appeal to young and old, and everyone from folkies to cider punks, beardy badgers to shifty blaggers.
The 'Hitchers blend razor sharp parodies and original material with a raucous stage show, spontaneous audience interaction,
cheeky banter and general cider shenanigans. Not to mention Baz, their legendary dancing badger...
In their quest to bring proper job drinkin' music to the masses the band have stolen the show at events of all types and sizes.
Highlights include Camp Bestival, Boomtown Fair, Tolpuddle Martyrs Festival and headline slots at the Great Dorset Steam Fair
and OutCider Festival, but there's simply nowhere these four fruity fellas can't instigate a good time.
Countless tour supports with The Wurzels have gained them the stamp of approval from true cider lovers everywhere. Once seen... never forgotten!
