After 30 years Flook show no sign of letting up in their brilliance, their dynamism, or their inventive flair.

In 2025, Flook’s enduring class shines bright as they step into their 4th decade with an exhilarating new release, Sanju, and an extensive tour schedule, taking them around UK, Europe and Japan.

The band early on evolved an inimitable trademark sound and hold fast to their rightful reputation as exceptional musical innovators; the whistles and flutes of Brian Finnegan and Sarah Allen, the guitar of Ed Boyd and the bodhran of John Joe Kelly weaving and spinning tunes rooted in tradition over precise acoustic grooves, with a rare blend of fiery technical brilliance, delicate ensemble interaction and a bold, adventurous musical imagination.
