Drop The Floor are the heartbeat of Clitheroe’s traditional music dynasty. The quartet is bonded by friendship and their musical empathy is seamless.
When playing live DTF never fail to have an immediate impact on the audience – be it a festival stage or in a more intimate venue.
Their relentless musical dedication and attention to detail is clearly evident in “Raise The Roof” – their debut album. It’s a dead set winner and will surely provide a platform for this infectious quartet to a reach a growing national audience.
