Calico Street Riots

Calico Street Riots is a folk punk group from London, United Kingdom. The project forms around the idea of making a “festival band”, with its concept shaped at Reading in 2008. The group’s stated aim is to create the kind of live experience that changes the atmosphere of a festival tent, drawing people in and creating a lively crowd response.

The group is associated with folk punk and punk, and presents itself as a band built for festival settings. It also references a track or video titled “Pint and a Fight”, which is described as appearing on YouTube and featuring a surprise guest appearance.
