This "anarchic gypsy-punk orchestra" bring high precision musicianship, a blazing passion for performance and their combined influences into a swirling circus of spectacle, sensation and sound where only the dead can refuse to dance. Ready to take on the World Book them now before its too late

The Destroyers were formed several years ago in Birmingham UK. A dazzling collective of talented, innovative, multi-instrumentalists and composers with a passion for collaboration. They are eclectic in their influences and draw freely from a range of traditions which highlight their collective love for music and performance and their high precision musicianship. In the past year they have built up an enormous following through a hectic schedule of gigs and festivals around Britain including London's Barbican Centre and Glastonbury Festival. They are currently mixing their first studio album which will be released in the late autumn.
