Greetings, Buskers! 👋

Right. The sun is coming. We can feel it. And with the sun comes muddy wellies, cold ciders, sunburnt shoulders, and the kind of live music that makes you feel genuinely alive.

The Busketeers are heading back to the festival circuit this summer — and we are absolutely ready for it.

☀️ Why Festival Season Hits Different

There's something about playing a festival that never gets old. The crowds are up for it from the moment they arrive. You share a backstage with bands you've admired for years. The set has to land instantly — no warming up a cold room, no building the crowd from scratch. You've got to hit the ground running and not stop until the last chord rings out.

We love it. Every single time.

🎪 Where We're Playing

We'll be announcing our full summer festival lineup very soon — keep your eyes on our socials and sign up to the mailing list at thebusketeers.com to be first to know.

What we can tell you is that if you've seen us at Boardmasters, Rock Oyster, Leopallooza, or Tunes In The Dunes before — you already know what you're in for. If you haven't? This is your summer.

🎟️ How to Make Sure You Don't Miss Us

Three steps. Simple.

  1. Sign up to the mailing list at thebusketeers.com — you'll get festival dates before anyone else

  2. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok @TheBusketeers for announcements the moment they drop

  3. Grab your festival tickets early — the good ones always sell out before you think they will

Festival season is nearly here. We'll see you in a field somewhere, singing something loud, with the sun going down behind the stage.

Wouldn't have it any other way.

Much love,

Ken, Luke, Olly and Matt 🎸

P.S. — Tag a mate you want to drag to a festival this summer. Go on. Do it. They'll thank you later.

 
 
 

Greetings, Buskers! 👋

Every band has a list. A running, ever-growing, passionately-debated list of covers they love playing live. Songs that make a crowd go properly mental. Songs that feel like they were written for four-part harmonies and a cajon. Songs you just can't help but belt out every single time.

Covers Volume One is our list. Recorded live. Released into the world on the spookiest night of the year.

🎃 Halloween at The Loft

We couldn't have asked for a better night to launch it. The Loft in Plymouth, sold out, fancy dress encouraged — and honestly? The crowd were as much a part of that record as we were. You can hear it in every track. The energy, the singalongs, the moments where the room just took over completely.

That's what a live covers album should sound like. Not polished within an inch of its life — real. Present. Human.

🎵 Picking the Songs

This was, diplomatically speaking, a vigorous process. Every member of this band has strong opinions about music (unsurprising, given we've been playing together for eleven years) and getting four people to agree on a final tracklist is roughly as straightforward as herding cats in a hurricane.

But that tension is what makes the record work. These aren't just songs we thought would go down well. These are songs we genuinely love — tracks that mean something to us, that we've worn in over years of gigs and festivals until they feel like our own.

📀 Limited CDs and Streaming

For those of you who grabbed one of the 50 limited CDs at the Halloween launch — thank you, and we hope you treasure that slightly chaotic piece of Busketeers history. For everyone else, the album is streaming now on all major platforms.

Give it a listen. Let us know which track is your favourite in the comments. And if you were in that room on Halloween night — we hope you remember it as fondly as we do.

Much love,

Ken, Luke, Olly and Matt 🎸
