Shabby Road

About

Based in East Dorset, Shabby Road is an acoustic covers trio founded in late 2024 by three highly experienced musicians. Between us we share almost 100 years of live music experience and thousands of gigs. Featuring former members of Jak the Lad and Red Diesel, we blend acoustic guitars, electric bass, harmonica and rich vocal harmonies to create a warm, versatile sound, perfect for upbeat pub nights, relaxed afternoon sessions, private parties and corporate events. Covering the golden era from the 1960s to the 1990s, our repertoire stretches across Rock, Pop, Soul, Reggae and Ska. Whether you want a packed Saturday-night singalong or a laid-back summer afternoon, we have a setlist to match. Plus our famously reliable skeleton drummer: always on stage, always on time, never asks for a raise.
