The Shabs / support The Chicken Ruckus

This event is cancelled

The Shabs is a Folk Punk band from Cape Town South Africa.

Having gigged extensively across South Africa and Europe for the past 6 years they deliver a tight, captivating set that blends sincere, melodic sing-a-long folk with the raw energy and DIY ethos of punk rock. Drawing influences from artists such as Frank Turner, Erik Petersen and Against Me!, the band never ceases to get a crowd to throw their fists in the air and sing along to their anthemic tunes which have been described as honest, raw and easy to relate to.

The band is made up of Jon Shaban on guitar and vocals, Ryan McArthur on double bass and backing vocals and Jon Case on drums, as well as frequent collaborations with female vocalists. Each musician brings their own flare and flavour to the music, adding to the uniqueness of their fresh ‘’High Quality Folk Punk” sound.


The Chicken Ruckus
The Chicken Ruckus spielen Old Time und Folk aus Leib und Seele.
Sie singen Songs aus den kühlen Bergen, von den wilden Küsten, von der Arbeit am Gleis und in den Kohleminen, über den Tod, das Leben, die Liebe und was danach kommt -roh und wohlklingend begleitet von Banjo und Mandoline und Fiddle.
Severin: Gesang, Banjo und Harp ( ex Tight Finks, The Jackets )
Satch: Mandoline , Bouzouki ( ex Zeno Tornad & The Boney Google Brothers , Menic )
Anna: Fiddle und Gesang
