Rapsquillion are a captivating folk ensemble known for their rich vocal harmonies, engaging arrangements, and a repertoire that travels from the traditional to the contemporary with style and heart. Their name hints at the spirit they bring to the stage—playful, curious, and unafraid to explore the edges of folk tradition while honouring its roots.
At the heart of Rapsquillion’s sound is their vocal blend: intricate harmonies that breathe new life into old ballads and add depth to their original songs. Drawing inspiration from English and Celtic traditions, their material often touches on historical tales, social themes, and the universal human experience. Whether it’s a stirring lament, a rousing chorus, or a modern-day story set to song, their performances are always marked by warmth, connection, and a deep respect for the music.
Instrumentally versatile, the group weaves fiddle, accordion, guitar and other folk staples into their sets, creating a textured and dynamic soundscape that keeps audiences spellbound. Every member brings their own musical voice, making for performances that feel both polished and heartfelt.
