The Disappointments are a four-piece Cornwall-based band featuring guitar, double bass, melodica, tight vocal harmonies and a driving backbeat in a Country / Folk / Rockabilly mix they call ‘FOLKABILLYBOOGIE’.

​

They'll throw Ska, Rock & Roll, Blues and Pop into the mix so long as it makes for a great song.  ​Live, they're fresh, funny, relaxed and infectious.  They love to play together and it shows. 

​​​​

Festival appearances include Glastonbury, Shindig, Boardmasters, Tropical Pressure and many more.  Constantly writing and recording new material, they continue to make music to lift the spirits, move your feet and raise a smile.

“When I'm dancing and grinning, I know it’s perfect”

(The Tiny Tea Tent, Tropical Pressure Festival)

​

“The Disappointments are anything but. I was not let down, I was lifted up.  

At one point we are clearly on a highway between a gas station 30 miles back and a motel 40 miles ahead at three in the morning with the radio down low to keep us both awake ... we'll be fine, don't fret.  Fckin' lovely.”
