A couple of mentions of 'exams' and 'college' leads us to believe that this is a new young band. But good!
So much of the really lively stuff coming out now is from the various colleges of traditional music that have sprung up where what might be lacking in 'wise old heads' is well made up in exuberance, drive and, often, fast frantic but accurate playing.
Here's one to set you into a happy, clappy frame of mind.
Well worth a listen.
