Rusty Shackle

Rusty Shackle are a hard-gigging folk-rock band from South Wales, known for their infectious energy, anthemic songs, and genre-blurring sound drawn from folk, rock, and indie roots. Since forming in 2010, they've built a loyal following through relentless touring and a reputation for exhilarating live shows that get crowds on their feet.

The band have released five studio albums to date, each one expanding their sonic palette while staying rooted in rich melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and a love of storytelling. Their 2022 release, Under a Bloodshot Moon, reached number 2 in the UK Folk Albums Chart and was praised as "a winner" by Get Ready to Rock and "their finest album yet" by Liverpool Sound and Vision.

Rusty Shackle were awarded Wales' Folk Favourites at the 2023 Wales Folk Awards - a reflection of the powerful connection they've built with audiences across the UK and beyond. Their shows have been described as "full of hope and optimism... a joy to listen to" (Morning Star), while Folk and Honey celebrated their "high-energy performances and well-crafted catchy tunes that swim around your head for days."

Whether playing festival stages, packed-out venues, or intimate sessions, Rusty Shackle deliver music that's rousing and resonant - songs that speak from the heart and stay with you long after the final note.
