FEROCIOUS DOG IN ASSOCIATION WITH NMC LIVE ANNOUNCE ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY AND IN SUPPORT OF THE LOCAL RURAL ECONOMY “SETTLE DOWN FESTIVAL” ON 30TH JUNE - 2ND JULY 2023
After two sell-out shows at Settle Victoria Hall earlier this year, it’d be rude not to bring the mighty Ferocious Dog and friends back to the venue for a punk-powered, folk-fuelled frenzy in 2023!
Settle Down Festival is a weekend of folk-punk excellence coming to the Victoria Hall from 30th June to 2nd July 2023. Headlining is Ferocious Dog playing three of their acclaimed albums in full: The Red Album on the 30th June, Fake News & Propaganda on July 1st and their latest The Hope on July 2nd. Supporting acts include The Men They Couldn’t Hang, The Bar Stool Preachers and Popes of Chillitown to join them in their quest to tell us all about the fall of modern British society through song, and have a dance about it.
Also included in the line-up are Headsticks, Random Hand, Riskee and The Ridicule, As December Falls and Shanghai Treason, with more bands to be announced. The roster makes up an array of punk artists injecting ska, folk, roots and even a touch of grime into the mix.
This will be one intimate yet boisterous festival that you do not want to miss. On the horizon of some new music releases from our headliner as well as Bar Stool Preachers, As December Falls, Imperial Leisure and Shanghai Treason, these bands are ready to make some real noise well into 2023 and fans are invited to celebrate with them in this esteemed institution of British arts history.
