Gigspanner Big Band

Gigspanner Big Band bring one of the most thrilling live folk shows on the circuit – a full-bodied, high-energy performance where master musicianship and boundary-pushing invention collide.

What started as Peter Knight’s richly textured trio has grown into a supercharged six-piece, with Edgelarks’ multi-instrumental brilliance and John Spiers’ formidable melodeon adding depth, colour and unstoppable momentum.

On stage, the band move effortlessly between driving folk-rock, intricate acoustic interplay and moments of hypnotic stillness, reimagining traditional tunes with bold harmonies, soaring improvisations and unexpected twists.
