World influenced acoustic music, with a hint of the bizarre!

From Cornwall, 3 Daft Monkeys combine rousing vocals, frenetic fiddling, rhythmical 12-string guitar, dancing bass and foot drum.

“ Varied and stirring acoustic style … outstanding fiddle work ” The Guardian (Social Vertigo) ***

3 Daft Monkeys recently released their highly anticipated new studio album ‘Social Vertigo’. Hailed as a dynamic and astonishing album, Social Vertigo demonstrates superbly the band’s varied and accomplished musicianship.

The band combine rousing vocals, frenetic fiddling, 12-string guitar, dancing bass and foot drum. Whether it's Celtic, Folk, Gypsy or other World Music you are drawn to, all these influences and more are in evidence within 3 Daft Monkeys’ music. Far too diverse to be pigeonholed into one genre, and possessing a sound completely impossible to typecast into being a particular “style”, 3DM traverse Dance, Dub, Punk, Reggae and Traditional Folk with ease, creating a stunning blend of upbeat, danceable music which despite all its world influences remains undeniably British.

The band toured the UK in February and March and have a number of festival appearances lined up over the Summer including Cambridge Festival, Glastonbury Festival, Cropredy, Larmer Tree Festival, Knockengorroch (Scotland) and Brampton Live. The band will also be appearing with Levellers and Seth Lakeman at three picnic concerts this summer at Arundel Castle, Arley Hall and Harewood House.

Whatever your taste in music, come and see them live ... their unique blend of high octane, funked-up folk is guaranteed to get you dancing!
