Strictly 18+
Skinny Living’s story is one of synchronicity, chance meetings, and the unflinching belief that their glorious indie soul music will reach the audience it deserves. Echoing Bill Withers, The Isley Brothers and Paolo Nutini, their songs shimmer with a timeless, gentle beauty, exquisite vocal harmonies and a lyrical wisdom that inspires optimism and reflection in equal measure.
The band’s sound is defined by two acoustic guitars and vocal harmonies delivered by Wakefield natives Will Booth and Danny Hepworth, while the ever-so-slightly haunted vocal and lyricism in the midst of it all belongs to front man and Bangor native Ryan Johnston. Since forming in 2014 the trio have amassed over 60 million streams worldwide.
The band recently shared the meaning behind their name, which is apt given their songs are often full of big dreams from a modest background: “Skinny Living is a term that describes the financial reality and lifestyle of the working class. Hard graft on a low income with a lust for life, passion for family and an optimistic attitude about the future.”
