Stick in the Wheel

This is exciting, Stick in the Wheel are a monumental force in the folk /electronica movement, and right on the ball.

Nicola Kearey & Ian Carter have been making music as Stick In The Wheel since 2013.

The radical East London duo are known for their intense live shows exploring the raw holler of folk, synths, spoken word and intricate guitar fuzz. They present full-force reworkings of centuries-old work-songs with fragments of ancient texts that speak to contemporary issues of class – an inherently political act. Their relentless approach to questioning traditional music forms is matched only by the energy that they bring to it. Full of hope and resistance, they continue to push forward contemporary roots music, whilst celebrating music from our collective histories – conjuring the past to point toward the future.
