The next generation of British folk rock has finally arrived thanks to ‘Lost Robins’, and they’re not being quiet about it. Formed in the summer of 2025, this ragtag of seasoned young musicians from Yorkshire, Cambridgeshire and the Fenland areas are hellbent on keeping folk music alive and kicking out at the modern world. Their stacked-up symphony of electric guitars and hard-hitting bass’n drums, peppered with the fiddling’s of accordion, flute, and violin creates an organised mess that would make the Levellers proud. 

You’d be forgiven at first glance for confusing them with a country pub session band, swapping stories and songs (from either 200 years ago or last week) late into the night around the big table at the back until the landlord begs them to go home. This is of course true. The band undoubtedly hail from a community that takes their music, culture, poetry and history very seriously. They are a band out of time, just old enough to cultivate respect for the tradition that came before them, and just young enough to carry that torch forward.

They haven’t been together long, but they’ve hit the ground running with the release of their first single – Shotgun. An assertive, politically charged song about keeping your lust for life in a world that hates those that try and loves the apathetic. They since have hurled themselves at social media in an attempt to get this track heard by whoever needs to hear it… and boy did they hear it. The single has provided them with an immense overnight success on instagram.

They are currently working tirelessly with Jake Day from North Acre Studios to release their (very suddenly) highly requested album a year ahead of schedule and keep their newfound audience along for the ride.

Catch the band live at one of the shows below, or get in touch if you require these kinds of shenanigans at your venue or festival.
