"9/10. A stomping musical cocktail of alchemic proportions" - Outline Magazine

"Sounds like The Men They Couldn't Hang at their height meet The Clash  - it's a belter" - Folking.com

"Think The Pogues in overdrive with the breath of the Dropkick Murphys down their necks" - Turn Up The Volume

"Superior Stuff" - Crack Magazine

Man The Lifeboats began life in a shanty-punk folk moshpit in 2016. Skinny Listerand Holy Moly & the Crackers were the two bands that lit the fire and blew the roof of the Garage that night.

Fast forward 8 years and 100 gigs and counting and Man The Lifeboatsare ploughing their full-throttle folked-up furrow on the festival circuit, winning over audiences at Moseley, Purbeck, Warwick, Swanage, Jurassic Fields, Beardy Folk, Folk in a Field, Bearded Theory, Deepdale, Ragged Bearand more, drawing comparisons to Bellowhead, Waterboys, Oysterband, the Levellers, and those folk-punk heroes the Pogues.

The second album Soul Of Albion hit no27 in the Official Folk Charts in 2022. Recorded at Rockfield Studios, it sounds like Led Zeppelin arm-wrestling Shane McGowan in a Birmingham brewery, like Jimboband Fruitbat fronting Fairport Convention, like The Albion Band turned up to 11 with their fiddles on fire. Tonic for these troubled times.

This Christmas concert will take place in the Brick Barn, with a bar. Please bring snacks, but not drink as our bar will be serving beers, ciders, wines, spirits and soft drinks. There may well be dancing, so this won't be a seated event.


This gig is part of the live music offering at Deepdale Camping & Rooms - deepdalemusic.co.uk

Why not make a short break of this concert, staying before, during or after for a few nights, so you can enjoy the beautiful North Norfolk Coast.  You can enjoy the great outdoors, watching some wildlife, walking, cycling, maybe some stargazing, or generally just enjoying this lovely part of the world, the big skies and calmness.



Deepdale is a small occasional venue for live music. Naturally if the event is cancelled, then tickets will be refunded. However, JBP Tourism Ltd will not be responsible for accommodation, travel or other costs incurred by ticket holders.

Price: Adults £15, Children (16 & under) & Students £12

Location: Brick Barn, Deepdale Camping & Rooms, Deepdale Farm, Burnham Deepdale, Norfolk, PE31 8DD
