Get ready for one Hell of a time
MERRY Hell are back – and this time they are with their full band!
Go along for another foot-stomping night, which is not to be missed. Merry Hell are a band founded on the ever-evolving folk tradition – music made by the people and shared by the people. It is a wellestablished fact that if you see Merry Hell live, you will leave with a big grin on your face. Their music is rousing, joyous, uplifting and totally infectious and probably contagious (in a good way, of course).
Founded in their native North West of England, Merry Hell is an eight-piece folk-rock band with a history, a pedigree and a bright future.
In four short years they have risen to become festival favourites, their first two albums finding favour with critics, broadcasters and music fans alike.
They are continuing to develop an enviable reputation for the quality of their song writing, recorded work and live performances.
The band was forged in the smouldering embers of 90s folk/ punk band, The Tansads.
Following an emotional series of reunion concerts in 2010, the band members chose to tread the boards under a new name, ‘Merry Hell’, in order to reflect their new impetus, new hopes and, most importantly, new songs.
Merry Hell will be at The Atkinson on Thursday, July 14 from 7.30pm.
