UK performers who entertain steampunk audiences

Steampunk performers range in scope and diversity from solo musicians, singers and magicians etc., to internationally acclaimed individuals and groups who attract festival-sized audiences of followers and fans.

Steampunk music consists of an eclectic mix of tastes and styles, ranging from gentleman rhyming rappers and solo electro-swing singers, to electric-violin dance spectacles, thumping-beat goth-rock bands, and even heavy-rock groups featuring fire-spitting bagpipes!

This is part of the fun of attending steampunk events - one never knows quite what one will enjoy, or not, until one sees an act in person. However, for those people who wish to get some idea of the musical style or entertainment genre of an act booked for a particular steampunk event, this listing is intended to inform potential audiences as to what sort of music or entertainment they can expect to see and hear if they book their tickets and join in the fun.

Please note that the information listed is provided by the performers themselves, not by us. An index-optimised list of all steampunk bands and performers is also available here.
