ABOUT

"Like the Pogues with Philthy Animal Taylor from Motorhead on drums" – Rev Porl

In 2007, from the ashes of various Swansea bands that no one had ever heard of, Galanastra was born. Forcing together folk roots, punk and ska Galanastra created a sound universally rejected by many folks, punks and skas. Spurned by the folk community Galanastra paved their way through local punk gigs, fundraisers and birthday parties to more punk gigs, fundraisers and birthday parties.

Their demo, begun in 2007 and completed near the end of 2008 was featured as demo of the week on Adam Waltons show on BBC Radio Wales, in 2009 they finished writing and learning the songs from the demo and headlined the “Viper on the beach 2”, a one day free festival. In 2010 they managed to fluke their way onto the festival scene playing both the Gower Rock festival and the Orchard Stage of Nozstock and followed up the next year with various festival appearances and weddings.
