The Bootleggers
Not your average acoustic duo.
A duo with a unique style and sound, performing toe-tapping, foot stomping covers of many classic and contemporary songs.
In four years of gigging across Yorkshire and the North East of England, The Bootleggers have never failed to please the crowd.
Whether it’s a small pub gig, a large festival for several hundred people or a wedding reception, The Bootleggers always leave their audience shouting for more.
Using guitars, percussion, harmonica, kazoo & the lads’ crowd-stopping, harmonious vocals, The Bootleggers UK perform tracks from artists such as;
Rag’n’Bone Man
Bastille
U2
Greenday
UB40
Disturbed
Kenny Rogers
Johnny Cash
Amy Macdonald
Gerry Cinnamon
And even some Gloria Gaynor and Dolly Parton and a LOT more!
With a huge THREE HOUR set list (shorter if you wish) The Bootleggers offer you so much more than most other bands.
Speaking of which…
The lads have their very own beer!
Two to be exact.
“The Bootleggers Pale Ale” is their cask ale and “Bootleggers IPA” is their 500ml bottled option. Both beers are brewed by Hambleton Brewery and can be ordered for any pub or private function.
And that’s not all…
If you are booking The Bootleggers for a party, wedding, festival or other event then be sure to ask them about the TWO bars they can supply too!
2018 saw the lads release three singles. All are available to stream or download on all major music platforms.
Their second single, “I See The Blood”, is a charity single with 100% of the money they receive being donated to SSAFA – The Armed Forces Charity.
2019 saw the release of another single, “Black Dog”, which will be their final release until their album. They hope to drop their yet unnamed album in early 2020.
They also featured on several radio stations including YO1 Radio, Minster FM and BBC Radio York. They also had their third single, Peace of Mind, played on BBC Introducing
In 2020, The Bootleggers will be releasing their first album and expanding their territory
