OUR STORY
The Busketeers are a band like no other, known for their raw energy and diverse shows. Comprised of four talented musicians who are all singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, they captivate audiences with their ability to harmonise and seamlessly swap instruments while delivering a unique sound that blends genres from all over the musical spectrum. Their passion for music is evident in every note they play.
The Busketeers originally formed on the streets of Plymouth, Devon, UK, where they quickly gained a reputation for their diverse performances and impressive musical skills. The band consists of Kendall Williams, Luke Engel (part of the band Wild Fenn), Matthew Gordon Price, and Olly Parker. Each member brings their own unique style and influences to the group, resulting in a sound that is both eclectic and cohesive.
Despite their success as a street band, The Busketeers quickly gained a following and began playing at local venues, eventually building a fan base that extended beyond their hometown. Their reputation as a must-see live act grew, and they were soon playing at festivals and venues across the country.
The Busketeers released their debut album, "The Busketeers," in September 2023. The album showcases the band's impressive range of musical styles and their ability to seamlessly blend them together. From folk to rock to pop, "The Busketeers" is a testament to the bands musical prowess and dedication to their craft.
Since then, The Busketeers have continued to tour and release new music, building a loyal fan base along the way. They have performed at some of the UK's biggest music festivals and stages, including: Boardmasters, Plymouth Pavilions, Tunes In The Dunes, Leopallooza, Rock Oyster, Tunes In The Park as well as supporting the likes of The Wailers (at Tunes On The Sands 2022); The Wurzels (Rattler Fest). Please head to the bottom of this page for a full list of previous festivals.
Recently the band recorded live sessions at Sawmill Studios, Fowey with Sound Factory SW and legendary producer John Cornfield who has recorded with Muse, Oasis, Robert Plant and many more chart toppers.
“It’s been an unreal experience to perform and record at such a prestigious studio, especially with John who honestly was such a chill and efficient person to work with, you can see why some of the greats have come here to work. We won’t forget this...”
As The Busketeers continue to evolve and grow as musicians, one thing remains constant: their commitment to providing audiences with an unforgettable live experience.
