THE SWEETCHUNKS BAND
has released single
‘Come Back’
Legendary South-Coast Comedy Folk Band releases beautiful festive track ‘Come Back’ a tribute to Lemmy.
With his birthday coming up this month The Sweetchunks Band released a different type of festive track with ‘Come Back’ an ode to the legendary Lemmy Kilmister.
It’s a bit of a change from their up-tempo folk punk but it’s full of their trademark hilarity and is a really fitting track to commemorate the birthday of Lemmy.
The track is taken from the band’s recently released album ‘Glittunderbus’ which peaked at Number 1 in the Bandcamp Comedy Charts.

In a decade filled with laughter, libations, and lyrical genius, Southampton’s very own musical merrymakers, The Sweetchunks Band, are toasting to their ten years of gallivanting around the country with a brand new offering.
This comedic folk sensation, renowned for their electrifying festival performances at The Isle of Wight Festival, Victorious Festival, Boomtown, and Beautiful Days, is back with their sixth album ‘Glittunderbus’ poised to take the world by storm.
For a full decade, The Sweetchunks Band has been serenading audiences with their uproarious blend of witty humour, original compositions, and hilariously funny performances.
With a loyal following affectionately known as ‘nutters’ their music has been described as the life of the party—a riotous celebration of all things merry and musical.
‘Glittunderbus’ a 13-track masterpiece of comedy folk genius, will be released on September 29, 2023.
Fans and music enthusiasts alike can expect nothing short of hilarity, heart, and toe-tapping rhythms from this band of merry minstrels.
Focus track from the album ‘Independent Nuclear Deterrent’ has been described by the band as a ‘whimsical twist on ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’, but with cider and a nuclear submarine, it’s an audacious lyrical adventure that promises to captivate listeners from the very first note.
The Sweetchunks Band is gearing up for an exciting tour this fall in support of ‘Glittunderbus’.
Be sure to catch them live as they bring their enchanting stage presence and irresistible tunes to audiences across the country.
Mark your calendars, set your reminders, and get ready to embark on a musical adventure of a lifetime.
‘Glittunderbus’ by The Sweetchunks Band is just around the corner, ready to sweep you off your feet and into a world of laughter, music, and sheer joy.
The Sweetchunks band is a three piece (sometimes four piece, if our violin player has escaped the clutches of the law) comedy folk band from Hampshire.
Celebrating their tenth year of gallivanting around the country playing drinking music (that’s comedy folk music to normal people) with a raucous and unique set of hilarious originals that have been described as witty, original and hilariously funny.
The Sweetchunks Band are a fun and energetic addition to any festival.
With a loyal following of nutters they fill any tent or stage with their mobile party.
It’s like the venga bus..but drunk and with banjos.
Previous Festival appearances included:
Gig in a field, Nah then, HeFF, Bearded Theory, The Isle of Wight Festival, Victorious Festival, Boomtown and a triumphant set to a filled Bimble inn at Beautiful Days festival.
