Moulettes are a shrieking bundle of contradictions. A pirate-folk band from Manchester… a cello-wielding, bassoon-swinging dance band… sweet little boys and sassy chicks. But above all they’re consummate musicians, cats of the night equally at home in a Soho members’ club, a Berlin free party or a dockside tavern… They began their musical journey early in 2005 when siblings Ruth & Rob Skipper (later writer/singer for The Holloways) set up shop with school friend Hannah, string player and night hawk.
