Tinderbox Orchestra brings together rappers, singers, soaring strings, heavy brass, woodwind and thundering bass and drums to completely reimagine what an orchestra can be. With a set full of original music, movement and unexpected collaborations, this is a live experience that hits with colour, energy and invention.

Joining Tinderbox on stage is special guest Kathyrn Joseph, known for her fearless storytelling, raw emotional depth, and unflinching honesty. With her fourth album WE WERE MADE PREY now out via Rock Action Records, she’s embracing a newfound intensity—bigger, angrier, and full of want.

Hailed as “an explosion of colour” (The Scotsman) and “rave culture meets last night of the Proms” (The Herald), Tinderbox has been described as “era defining” (Snack Mag), “spectacular” (The Guardian), “a personal favourite” (Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music) and “an orchestral revolution” (Edinburgh Evening News).
