Full Biography

Introducing The Rusty Nails, the UK's premiere Edwardian Street Brass Band! Having earned their stripes as street performers in the South East of the UK, The Rusty Nails are masters of subverting expectation. What could be more tame than a group of pristinely attired gents in boaters and period dress, to then fire into rocking versions of classic pop, punk and many more mind bendingly inventive arrangements of your favourite tunes? 

With each member using radio mics, they are unrestricted by cables, allowing the band to offer walk-about roaming entertainment, as well as static / stage performances. The band are highly interactive, with the frontman and frontline band getting right in amongst guests, who will love being part of the action!

With many years experience honing their one-of-a-kind show, the band are no strangers to festival stages, Beer Keller, Weddings, Corporate events and Guerilla Street Performances. A sure fire way of getting your guests engaged, involved and dancing frenetically, Rusty Nails bring an unmatched energy to every show.

Playing their own typically unorthodox versions of classic hits from acts such as The Human League, The Killers, Taylor Swift to name but a few. Vocal harmony and inventive use of instruments and space are key elements to their show. You’d best take out more insurance as the roof is coming off at your event!

The Rusty Nails offer lineup choices from 3-6 members including more brass and percussion, offering a huge sound and immersive experience and will work with you to ensure that the right tone is set for your event, full PLI and PAT provided as well as small PA and lighting rig. Please speak with an event coordinator to discuss your requirements.

An electrifying performance to have your guests in fits of laughter and leaving their troubles on the dancefloor! A show unlike any other!
