The Trials Of Cato At Acapela Studios, Cardiff

A real discovery on the folk circuit in recent times Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2 Fascinating stuff Cerys Matthews, BBC 6 Music Swaggering glossy results The Guardian A band name on everyones lips fRoots Something very special has landed The Trials of Cato are about to hit the earths atmosphere with a bang FRUK The Sex Pistols of folk John Davis, Metropolis Studios (Led Zeppelin, Royal Blood) The remarkable rise of energetic trio The Trials of Cato on the UK folk scene has been the subject of massive critical attention. Dubbed the Sex Pistols of folk, (J Davis) they pay clear homage to the tradition whilst twisting old bones into something febrile and modern, with stomping tunes and captivating stories. Originally from North Wales and Yorkshire, The Trials of Cato formed whilst living in Beirut, and spent a year boiling down the roots of their sound into a hybrid of traditional influences that intrigued Lebanese audiences in the countrys biggest venues. Returning home from Beirut in the winter of 2016, they have since torn a shape very much their own into the canvas of the UK folk scene. Back in the UK, they set to performing tirelessly up and down the country, leading to BBC Radio 2s Mark Radcliffe hailing them as one of the real discoveries on the folk circuit in recent times. Musical development in the run up to their debut album proper was swift and sure, with Hide and Hair winning acclaim and receiving repeated national airplay on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music. Praised for the diversity of their material and influences, The Trials of Cato live show invariably stuns audiences wherever they play. (FATEA) Whether plying their trade busking, performing in front of thousands at festivals across Europe, or frequently selling out their own shows, The Trials of Cato have the wind behind them.
