This is a special stripped down acoustic set, from what is usually a full on folk-rock and sometimes punk-folk band. Driven Serious is a five-piece original folk-rock band based around Newcastle upon Tyne. They've been on the circuit for 12 years and released two LPs and an EP.
Their high octane performance is something which has made them unforgettable.
Driven Serious new album: "Look On These Works is an incredibly engaging listen, whether it’s the monumental sounding strings that carry us through this adventure, or the war-like drums at the start of the title track, it’s an impressive experience." - Narc
Driven Serious performance: "I suppose you could file Driven Serious under the banner of folk-rock; but they are so much more than that. They have a vibrancy that you can virtually see thrumming off them when they play, passionate and with the hand-brake well and truly off, and with a vibe that has had people likening them to The Levellers to The Pogues to The Smiths to The Wonderstuff" – The Crack
