A Kaleidoscope of Culture: Gulbenkian Arts Centre's 2025 Line-Up

Gulbenkian Arts Centre

Emerging in the early 80s from their Whitstable folk club and Oyster ceilidh band days, Oysterband infused both the tradition and their own songs with a passion and energy that was electrifying for the time. Polkas, politics and a heaving dance floor seemed just right for Thatcher’s Britain. Signing to new roots label Cooking Vinyl, headlining English Roots against Apartheid, playing Glastonbury and the Fleadh several times each, touring with The Pogues in Europe and Billy Bragg in North America, hosting the Big Session Festival….. all gained them a large and loyal international following.
