The Blue Pig Orchestra

The Blue Pig Orchestra are an exciting and dynamic six piece band producing their own brand of folk-rock influenced in equal parts by traditional English and American folk music, Country and Rock and Roll

Their dynamic song writing features rich four part male/female vocal harmonies and songs influenced by British/Celtic folk rock and Americana, which gives their material an exciting mood changing dimension throughout their live set. Following the success of their Debut EP, Dave Swarbrick (Fairport Convention) picked up on one of the blue pig's songs Gallows Hill and added his distinctive style to an additional fiddle part. This version of the song was released in 2014 on Dave’s EP, Passing the Baton.

The band’s songs and style have been likened to Fairport Convention, Crosby Stills Nash and Young and The Eagles amongst others.
