After starting as a collective conduit of Celtic punk in 2016, Liddington Hill veered away from their traditional folk/punk signature and into their heavier grunge sound in 2019; they quickly became a staple in the Wiltshire live circuit and beyond with their original material and ability to reanimate folk classics with a sludged-up pulse.

Their 2023 EP, Edge of Insanity, was revered by Devizine for juxtaposing tales of American serial killers with expositions on gold rush-era brothels while channelling the ferocity of punk and the heavy oscillations of grunge into aggressively produced Celtic Punk.

As coiners of the new Celtic Grunge subgenre, Liddington Hill is thriving within their uncharted territory, delivering distortion with storytelling tradition. Raucous and revelationary, the independent outfit finds influence from the likes of Ferocious Dog, Dropkick Murphys, Pixies, Joy Division and Blackbeard’s Tea Party while keeping a firm grip on their own inimitable aural blueprint.

The same indomitable spirit that scours its way through the Liddington Hill discography is exhibited in the band’s relentless DIY ethos; throughout 2025, they will continue to release new music and bring their high-octane chaos to more stages throughout the UK, giving more people the opportunity to catch and embrace their cathartically anarchic energy.

With a new LP in the pipeline and ready to drop in early 2026, Liddington Hill is set to become a mountain on the map of alt-folk-punk. Fans can expect swathes of more traditional folk vignettes of historical and modern social events filtered through a dark and heavy grunge lens.
