A fiery yet charming Australian ensemble featuring brass, guts, words and skins, Flap! formed during an informal jam at the 2007 Port Fairy Folk Festival. True to those roots they’ve since gone on to become firm festival favorites country wide having torn it up everywhere from Port Fairy to Woodford, Falls, Adelaide Fringe, Apollo Bay, Melbourne Jazz, Rainbow Serpent, the National Folk Festival and many more.

Hot, brassy, and explosive, Flap! have been described as music that is both old and new. A rambunctious collage of 1920’s jazz, English folk, gypsy brass and Trinidadian calypso influences, the end result is something fresh and (apparently) distinctively Australian.

Rock In Space is the first taste of their forthcoming album. Grab it below.
