Dry The River

Since forming in spring 2009, Dry the River have toured extensively in the UK and Europe promoting their “careful mix of emotive, lilting folk and upbeat, impassioned rock’… NME.
Musically, the band cite an esoteric list of influences - Leonard Cohen, At the Drive-In, Neil Young, Arlo Guthrie, Neutral Milk Hotel , Bruce Springsteen and Devendra Banhart.

Check out their live music videos performed from the back of our Ford Transit van, exclusively for Bands in Transit. The Joy Formidable perform their track 'Family Tree' and talk to Jen Long about life on the road. Recorded live at the Great Escape Festival, Brighton, May 2011.
