Bromyard Folk Festival

11th-14th September 2025

Quantum Penguin

Quantum Penguin

Quantum Penguin is the delightfully quirky musical alias of Matt Woolley, a Shropshire-based folk multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and unabashed penguin enthusiast. Whether he’s wielding a fiddle, guitar, or bouzouki, Matt brings warmth, wit, and a love of tradition to every performance – alongside the occasional flightless bird reference.

Equally at home with traditional folk tunes and more contemporary songwriting, Quantum Penguin bridges the gap between heritage and modernity, creating music that’s heartfelt, melodic, and joyfully original. His sets weave together self-penned songs and lively instrumental pieces, often laced with humour, reflection, and the occasional unexpected twist.

Matt’s easygoing style, skillful playing, and endearing stage presence have made him a favourite on the folk circuit. With a name that never fails to raise a smile and a sound that always delivers, Quantum Penguin offers a refreshing take on folk music – one that’s rooted in tradition but never afraid to wander into uncharted (or icy) territory.

Catch Quantum Penguin at Bromyard Folk Festival for a set full of charm, tunes, and just maybe… a penguin or two.
