Ducking Punched were a Folk Punk based in Norwich active until 2022. Originally the solo acoustic project of guitarist and vocalist Dan Allen, Ducking Punches became a punk / folk / rock quintet. Hailing from Norwich, the band had over 1,000 shows under their belt, including a European tour in 2014 with Frank Turner and Andrew Jackson Jihad, as well as festival sets at Reading and Leeds, Download, Groezrock, FEST and support slots alongside The Hold Steady, The Menzingers, Teenage Bottlerocket, Franz Nicolay and Leatherface. With three albums, including their first on XMR, Fizzy Brain, they collectively cranked the vitality and volume while building melody, texture and drama with violins, gang vocals and amplification - all the while retaining the pace and dynamics that brought Ducking Punches to such live acclaim. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Ducking+Punches">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
