Relax and enjoy yourself at this final celebration of the 10 Parishes Festival. The Demon Barbers have been entertaining audiences countrywide for thirty years with their unique blend of music and humour.
The Demon Barbers offer a memorable musical event. They offer a diverse repertoire - British and American popular songs, spiritual and comedic to name a few. The musical arrangements for this five man a-cappella group bring out the best in their virtuosity. Audiences across the UK have been captivated by the DBs ability to switch musical mood - whimsical, witty, touching. Concerts have often been enhanced by specially commissioned pieces written by the group. All this has helped the group to re-define 'light entertainment'.
The DB's have performed extensively on the BBC - Sean Rafferty's 'In Tune'; DEF II House Party; Jonathan Ross' 'Last Resort'; Brian Matthew's 'Round Midnight'.
Performances have also been given at Festivals like Lichfield and Buxton; many Music Clubs and schools; e.g. Gordonstoun and Uppingham. Even the House at Covent Garden has engaged their individual and group talents.
