the TransSiberian
Marching Band
The New Yorkbased funk trio
responsible for hits
like “Scooby

and “King of New

a few, will be
bringing their mix of
live hip-hop to

the main stage of loads of festivals in the past but Lounge on the Farm is
one of the band’s few UK dates this year. This will be their first time in Kent

Bringing their
unbelievable live show

performance
combines Yoda’s
