Full bio
Friends and bandmates since they were twelve, Two Blank Pages have spent twenty years refining their sound and remain one of the most down-to-earth acts you will work with.
From the early days playing the pubs of the West Midlands to the stages of Shrewsbury Folk Festival and Theatre Severn, the core trio delivers a live show built on acoustic energy and driven banjo. They are often joined by Quantum Penguin, whose fiddle adds another layer to the performance.
Stomping rhythms, infectious melodies and close harmonies are underpinned by the band’s love of playing on stage together. They write, record, mix and master everything they release, so the energy on singles like Ouroboros and Stoked The Fire is exactly what you get when they step onto a stage.
