Holly Head

Danceable agit-funk and razorwire guitars from the North of England.

Biography

The story so far

Building danceable agit-funk from the ground up, fomenting a patchwork of percussive patterns and indefatigable bass before razorwire guitars and frontman, guitarist and lyricist, Joe's clarion call vocals, Holly Head's rollcall of high-impact influences include Wu-Lu, Happy Mondays, Aphex Twin, Fugazi, Fela Kuti and DJ Shadow. Of their music released to date, their frenetic, live-favourite debut single, No Gain, has ascended to 'if you know, you know' underground classic status, securing them a debut BBC 6 Music 'New Music Fix' live session in late 2024.

Leaving few stages untouched, not only around their familiar stomping grounds in the north of England but nationwide, the band's path to becoming the scene's best-known cult concern has been beaten with the help of support slots with the lines of Sprints, Welly and Fuzz Lightyear.
