Couch Boy Music

This was our second year at the Wickerman Festival. The annual event set in an idyllic location near Kircudbright, not far from Dumfries is great for parents who enjoy music, and people who find T in the Park a little ‘full-on’.

Whilst enjoying the sounds of The Charlatans on the Friday night, we got talking to LeAnn,  one of the members of Joe Viterbo, a ska-punk band playing the following day.  They sounded interesting, and being the open-minded folk that we are, we decided to check them out… Well, my four year old decided

Anyway, we quite liked them (the CD has been on continuous rotation in our kitchen), so check them out using the following routes:
