Isambarde's music is a powerful blend of traditional and contemporary folk songs, taking the English tradition forward into the 21st century. Sadly they will be discbanding in October after nearly 10 years, we are delighted to have them back at BunkFest as part of their farewell tour.

"Isambarde are a folk band with tremendous energy and enthusiasm. They are the unusual and winning combination of Chris's driving guitar, Emily's incisive fiddle playing and Jude's lyrical oboe coupled with great full on vocal harmonies. They play a great set and are an asset to any festival bill. Book 'em!!" - Phil Beer

"Isambarde are a really good young band. They’re good to listen to, good to look at and it’s very obvious that they enjoy performing.” - Vin Garbutt

“Driving acoustic guitar rythms woven together by silken melodies on oboe and fiddle.” - Cath Mundy & Jay Turner
