About this Event

CoCo and the Butterfields sprang to life in September 2011 as a humble folk trio. Nowadays they're more accurately described as a five-strong major kick on the South East music scene, a truly colourful, energetic & crowd-stamping act to be reckoned with, featuring beatboxer EupheX and performing their own unique fusion of Folk, Pop and Hip Hop, or "Fip Fok" to their fans. Within a year CATB had earnt themselves the title of the UK's best unsigned act, (winners of Live and Unsigned 2012) collecting several more song writing awards, 250,000 YouTube hits and shared a stage with internationally renowned artists King Charles, Bastille and The Pogues.

"Very cool band!"

Bob Geldof

"The song Astronaut stuck in my head that night, the whole bar was singing along, clapping and stomping, you can't imagine the buzz these guys caused."

Kate Lynn Devere, Gashouse Radio
