The Fufkins

The Fufkins are a three piece from Kent and Surrey featuring singer/guitarist/songwriter Matt Carr, electric/double bass player Mark Sykes, and Andy Phillips drums/percussion. The Fufkins write thoughtful pop songs, citing influences such as Neil Finn (Crowded House), Difford & Tilbrook (Squeeze), Aimee Mann, and Richard Hawley, among others. The Fufkins are regulars on the Kent and Surrey live, and folk music scenes, playing both acoustic and electric sets. The band have supported the likes of The Blockheads, Modern English, Davis Lindley Mullan (Stackridge), and most recently the great Boo Hewerdine. The Fufkins were featured at the 2015 Tunbridge Wells Local & Live festival. The Fufkins' old school instrumental track "Vincent" has been used as the theme tune for "Pienaar's Politics" on BBC Radio 5 Live since 2012 - listen out for the Fufkins on your radio every Sunday morning at 10am!
