2022 and Beyond

Some great gigs in 2022 particular favourites were Wildhood, Kelburn (adults going wild for us) and the fabulous Maryhill Intergration Centre (the most multi cultural of audiences.) But actually all the gigs where great after such a fallow period. Next year promises a long awaited third album Vegetables and Fruit Tree and lots of gigs. Keep a look out and join our facebook group. See you in 2023

We want everyone to stay healthy and happy in this difficult and unusual festive time, so we have created this Covid-busting fruit and veg wreath!!

The BarrowBand on lockdown!

Well it’s been a tough and challenging time for everyone and like everyone else we have been on lockdown with all of our summer gigs cancelled. However! We have been busy making little lockdown videos of some of our songs. We hope you enjoy them, and see you as soon as we can!

Some pictures of our great 2018 Festival gigs and to say that new album(s) are coming this Autumn!!! Vegetables and Fruit 3, Party Remixes of some of our greatest hits and an animal album!

Wildhood Children’s Festival

This was a lovely, safe new Festival for Children. Highly recommended

The 11.00am slot. The crowd just grew and grew.  One of our best gigs.

 

Doune the Rabbit Hole Soundcheck for the breakfast slot (10.00am on a Sunday). A few fans waiting in anticipation.

But as people woke up to the strains of the carrot song echoing across the site they went wild for us.

Crowdfunding a new Barrow For The BarrowBand!

Our first Indiegogo crowd funding campaign is now live to raise funds for our new kinetic barrow to accompany us in our performances.

As the repertoire of the band grows, so must the barrow. Following the release of our second album we have another 14 amazing fruits and vegetables to incorporate into our show. The Barrow is also an essential interactive learning tool for our workshops we run in schools.

We need help to design a bigger, folding adaptable barrow which we can alter to suit each gig we play. This may include modules with bigger fruit and veg for younger children.

You can help us to develop our show to reach even more and especially to reach people in areas with low arts input and poor diet.
