Tupelo are an exciting, new, original, acoustic roots act consisting of 5 members. With an eclectic line-up of instruments which includes banjo, guitar, fiddle, saxophone and double bass, Tupelo’s sound is fresh and unique in today’s world of endless electric outfits. The band have been working hard over the past year, playing all over the country and bringing their exciting live shows to the masses. Appearances at several festivals including Electric Picnic and playing support to some of music’s biggest acts such as Booker T, Imelda May and Damien Dempsey, have further enhanced their reputation on the scene. Tupelo released their debut album, ‘Dirty Money’ in October to critical acclaim, and with more festival and support appearances on the horizon, 2011 promises to be an eventful year for the band.
‘I’ve had the pleasure of working with Tupelo a great band from Dublin. They have a wonderful sound, great musicianship and fantastic songswriting. They have a rootsy sound of great mixtures from blues and country to trad’
