Leatherat news

We had a blast playing at this year’s Brasenose Fringe! It’s always a joy to play in one of our favourite places, so close to where Leatherat took its first steps all those years ago.

At last it’s spring and the weather forecast is looking fabulous for Leatherat’s first festival outing of the year, Ey Up Mi Duck near Doncaster this weekend. More festivals through the summer to come!

To celebrate the 2023 summer festival season, we have released our brand new T-shirts, and now you can buy them in our shop. Not only that, buy a T-shirt and you can get Snake Eyes on CD for a fiver!

Coming soon is Leatherat’s only Welsh gig of 2023 — at Cardiff’s Clwb Ifor Bach, Friday 13 October 2023. We are joined by our wonderful friends 3 Daft Monkeys and Warren Ireland for a night of raucous rocking folk.

We can finally confirm that some of the whispers on the various Fairport gossip channels are indeed true — Leatherat will be performing at 2023’s Fairport Convention’s Cropredy fringe.

Festival favourites Leatherat bring their riotous folk fun to two festivals in the south in August.
