Headsticks are back at The Foxlowe in April. After their sell-out show in 2025 we just can't wait for this. Formed in 2012 Headsticks have built a substantial fanbase and earned a solid reputation for their very own brand of folk roots infused punk rock'n'roll. Their live shows are rousing, impassioned, raucous and emotional. Having done high profile tour supports with the likes of New Model Army, Steve Ignorant’s Crass (Full European Tour), Terrorvision, Ferocious Dog, and The Men They Couldn't Hang among others, Headsticks continue to receive equally high praise from the pillars of punk, folk, roots, and rock, with Louder Than war even describing them as ' Punk Rock Steeleye Span'. Their recorded material has received consistently positive reviews,. Vive Le Rock magazine describing the band as 'A breath of fresh air', while Louder Than War encourage you to 'Get out there and see these guys; talk about them. Get the revolution started!', Several publications have made their various albums their 'Album Of The Year' in the past. "One of the most irresistible and essential punk’n’roll adventures. Whether it’s the full throttle, heart pounding stompers, the anthemic singalongs...

Why can’t we sneak in a bit of awesome, a tad of amazing and maybe a smidge of wonderful? A forest canopy opening onto a huge vista would be enchanting for some but my ancestors wandered in the desert for forty years, I think we’ve been outdoors enough.

His popular posts and reels on social media have quickly earned him a following of over 60k across BlueSky, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook, amassing millions of views.

In the last three years, Ian has performed his one-man shows at the Edinburgh Festival to packed rooms and great reviews. In 2023, he won t...
