FIDDLEBOP 🄵, Powys.

FiddleBop plays jazz-folk! From Hot Club Gypsy swing to Jigs’n’reels, and beyond… on violin, cello, guitar, bass, and with four voices in harmony. Our music is sophisticated but isn't stuffy or pretentious. We love what we play, and it shows!

“A fantastic gig from FiddleBop last night - bouncy gypsy jazz, interesting histories, and stories of ground-down skulls - what's not to love?" Live at the Old Street Tavern, Ludlow 2026
"... a wonderful evening of life-affirming music…" Brecon Jazz Club 2025
