After 11 records in 15 years, the “war correspondent of the working class” Jason Williamson and the “wizard of sound” Andrew Fearn, the magnificent Sleaford Mods, remain complex and at the same time original and straightforward. They’ve been called “electro-punk”, “rap-punk”, “electro-pop”, “minimalist spoken word” but who cares? They’re Iggy Pop’s favorite band and we’re excited to see them live.

After half a dozen successful singles they’re no longer an underground sensation since their fans come by the thousands and they’re ready for the next step: to take the summer festival world by storm.
