Festival

Currently local but soon to be global, The Dull Fudds,
Heralding from the Scottish Borders, have played together for 3 years and consist of 4 slightly
mad yet lovable musicians whose high-energy performance and gloriously catchy songs are guaranteed to get
you dancing.
With melodic female harmonies, flute and rocking drum and bass groove their inspired sound is a boiling pot of genres, eloquently crafted into upbeat self-deprecating pop songs with a difference by songwriter and charismatic front woman, Katie Forbes. The band have just released their debut album “Gibberish” which is available to download from Amazon and iTunes and are signed to Brigside Music Publishing Ltd.
Sillyflatt Barn will be a brighter place thanks to The Dull Fudds - check them out on Saturday on the Main Stage.
Their music is an intercontinental theatre, a wander through sub-genres and others of their own invention (if ever
there existed a tea dance for the unorthodox then this would be the album they‘d stick on for the kaleidoscopic
shimmy waltz every Thursday, if you please) and conjures up a variety of ambient imagery as if hauling different
coloured rabbits from the same hat, and it’s all done without any visible seam or stumbled effort.
The Dull Fudds remain true to the idiosyncrasies they were born with and have unfurled an album of work more than
capable of holding its own out there, and should fear the presence of nothing when taking their place among the
great and the good.
This band are currently doing things differently and if that’s not reason enough to celebrate them then I don’t
know what is.
Alan Baillie, Subba-Cultcha
