Shirley Red Lion Folk Club (January 19th, 2018:-

“Oh you know it’s going to be a good night when the room starts to fill up well before opening time for our Feature Guests the Bearwood Bandits. Although down two members they didn’t disappoint with a great varied set of fine songs and tunes.”

Warwick Folk Club (May 21st, 2018:-

“Their brand of Americana went down extremely well with songs well-known and less so….they’re becoming a band to look out for when you see them playing near you.”
