Fence Collective
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fence Collective is a musical collective based in Anstruther in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland affiliated to the Fence record label. The more established acts are often dubbed nu-folk by the press, although the collective also features practitioners of rock and electronica.
As well as releasing a wide range of music on different formats and realms of availability, Fence also put on tiny festivals called Homegame which attract fans to the East Neuk Of Fife from all over the world. These festivals generally take place out of the tourist season and provide a much needed boost to the local hotel trade.
Leading acts include King Creosote, James Yorkston, Pip Dylan, Pictish Trail, u.n.p.o.c., Gummi Bako, Lone Pigeon, HMS Ginafore, Things In Herds, Down the Tiny Steps, Barbarossa, Found. KT Tunstall and The Beta Band have also been involved. Amino people almost won, but were pipped at the post by Bob Agnews.
