Rooted in folk, driven by harmony. The Superphone are an acoustic folk band whose sound blends soaring vocal harmonies with infectious, roots-fuelled energy.

Last summer saw The Superphone take the stage at ClubFest – the flagship annual music festival hosted by the Caravan and Motorhome Club – delivering a high-energy set that won over audiences from across the UK. The band also made a memorable appearance at the Folk in a Field Festival in Norfolk, adding their signature sound to the festival’s vibrant and eclectic lineup.

The Superphone have recently released fresh music that captures their evolving sound and emotional depth. First up is “Love Will Find a Way”, a powerful new studio recording of one of the band’s early favourites, reimagined and recorded at the iconic Dean Street Studios in Soho, London.

Alongside it came an all-new original track, “Right Now”, featuring a stunning lead vocal performance from Ged Marciniak. This song showcases the band’s dynamic range and is a bold statement of where The Superphone is headed musically.

The Superphone are a Manchester-based acoustic folk band whose sound blends soaring vocal harmonies with driving acoustic riffs and an infectious, roots-fuelled energy. Formed in 2012, the band have spent over a decade honing a sound that is both heartfelt and uplifting, combining modern folk sensibilities with classic songwriting and powerful live performances.

With a shared passion for music running through every member, The Superphone draw inspiration from a wide range of artists including Seth Lakeman, Mumford & Sons, Nina Nesbitt, Cara Dillon, Megson, Alex Hart, Bagatelle, Skerryvore and Tidelines, alongside U.S. legends such as The Eagles. The result is a rich, melodic sound that feels both contemporary and timeless.

The Superphone are known for their lively and vibrant stage presence, with audience interaction at the heart of every show. They play to their crowd — and their crowd love it. This connection has seen them sell out numerous venues across Manchester, including The Roadhouse, DryLive, Night & Day Café and Jabez Clegg, as well as performing at respected London venues such as O2 Academy Islington, The Camden Club, The Dublin Castle, The Water Rats, Spice of Life, The Jamm and The Lux.

Over the past four years, The Superphone have become a familiar name on the UK festival circuit, appearing at Ely Folk Festival, UK West Coast Folk Festival (Blackpool Winter Gardens), Folk in a Field Festival (Norfolk), ClubFest 2025 (Bolesworth Castle), ClubFest 2024 (Weston Park, Shropshire), WildFest (Staffordshire), Foodies Festival Oxford and Foodies Festival Tatton Park.

Their debut album, That Was Then and This Is Now, was released in 2020 and features nine acoustic, vocal-driven tracks that capture the band’s harmony-rich sound. In August 2020, The Superphone recorded a new version of Love Will Find a Way at the legendary Dean Street Studios, Soho, London. More recently, the band recorded new material at Giant Wafer Studios, Wales during sessions in 2023 and 2024. These sessions include their latest release Right Now, featuring Ged Marciniak on lead vocals, with more music due for release soon — including the energetic, Celtic-influenced track Valhalla.

The Superphone have received radio airplay across the UK, Europe, USA and Australia, with features on BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire and BBC Radio Ulster.
