Pigeon Pit, Cheap Dirty Horse, Maz and The Phantasms

USA folk punk legends Pigeon Pit are back on tour in Edinburgh! With support from Nottingham's finest folk punk pedlars Cheap Dirty Horse, and Scottish funk punks Maz and The Phantasms.
PIGEON PIT
Pigeon Pit is a collection of stories wrapped in sunburned skin and a brave heart from a small beach town. They evoke a honky-tonk held in a punk house living room, the Olympia band finds sparks of communal joy while sorting through the stress and grief of daily life offering bittersweet snapshots that stick with you long afterwards. Centred in the now, under a backdrop of rising global fascism and AI battling it out with reality, the band is focusing on how to keep sane and still love and have fun in these dark days. The band went into recording their fifth album, “Crazy Arms” after the busiest year since their founding. They toured for the first time as a full six-piece, played high-profile gigs, like their first Tiny Desk show, played with Laura Jane Grace, and toured Australia and New Zealand. Despite obvious signs of the band’s growing popularity, they still tapped into their DIY roots in recording this one, using a friend’s basement as their studio.
CHEAP DIRTY HORSE
Cheap Dirty Horse are a big rowdy queer trash folk-punk band from Nottingham. Blending acoustic and electric guitar with banjo, accordion, bass, drums, and sometimes mandolin, they write energetic, joyful protest music.
MAZ AND THE PHANTASMS
Maz and the Phantasms are a high-energy psychedelic surf punk band from Glasgow, formed by Catalan-Egyptian artist Maz and her friends Jamie Sparkles (guitar), Jude Norton-Smith (bass) and Toby Valentine (drums). Born out of dive bars, DIY tours and late-night jams, the band mixes beach-goth guitars, funky basslines, and spooky synths with a touch of spaghetti-western swagger. Equal parts punk and charity shop glam, their shows are chaotic, sweaty and full of drama, where rock’n’roll meets queer theatrics and the party always gets a little silly.
