One In The Chamber
This band made their Faringdon debut at Live At The Park last year and were very well received by a large and noisy crowd so it will be good to have them at FollyFest. They are a tight 4-piece band, mainly playing tried and trusted rock and indie covers. [...]
Operation ’77
Operation '77 are an energetic punk-ska covers/tribute band from around Swindon and Wiltshire. Formed in 2011 (though earlier incarnations of the band included the likes of This Is England), OP '77 have built a great reputation locally from their frenetic live performances, and have a strong following in the [...]
Psychic Squirrels
Faringdon's very own Psychic Squirrels are back to entertain the Follyfest crowd this year, playing a bunch of well-known (and some much less familiar!) punk and rock classics.
Rock Choir
Our traditional Saturday main stage starters, the Wantage-based Rock Choir, led by local lady Krisha Moody and predominantly (but not exclusively!) female, always put on a good show and get us up and running for the rest of the day’s musical extravaganza. Expect to hear some very familiar pop [...]
Roughcut Ruby
Another local indie covers band playing their first FollyFest – a 5-piece playing excellent covers of everything from Bruno Mars to the Doobie Brothers. Find us on:
Seven’77s
Seven'77s hail from Gloucestershire and play an eclectic mix of covers from the music archives with great live shows and great musicianship.
Sloe Train
Sloe Train made an appearance at Follyfest 2023 on the Crown Stables Stage and impressed everyone with their blues-rock set, so much so that they’re back again this year, but this time on the Main Stage. They are fast becoming a regular fixture in the south-west festival scene and [...]
Strungout
Strungout have played at FollyFest on several occasions and play a mellow set of well-known songs, mostly to a ukulele-themed setting. They always get a very warm reception and will be the perfect act to get the ball rolling for the Sunday sessions.
