Shy and the Fight is a 7 piece alternative folk/pop collaborative based in and around Chester and North Wales. Michael Deponeo (Guitar, Vocals), Christopher Done (Bass, Vocals), Thomas Hyndman (Guitar, Banjo, Vocals), Carrie Anderson (Violin, Glockenspiel, Vocals), Jackson Almond (Keys, Electronics, Banjo), Tom Wootton (Drums) and Samuel Williams (Drums, Percussion, Cornet) have been together since 2009 and within their short time together, have gotten off to a fantastic start playing at a wide range of venues from local bars to larger events including the first ‘Stop Making Sense’ festival at the ‘Garden’ festival site in Croatia. Regularly performing across the UK, they have built up a substantial live fan base and have made frequent appearances on the Adam Walton show on BBC Radio Wales and have also recorded a live session for the show. Their track ‘How to stop an imploding man’ was used in the controversial Jack Wills advertising campaign for their Easter catalog earlier this year. Shy and the Fight are a dynamic group and their energetic performances are definitely not something to be missed!
