Fully Cocked


I've been following this Edinburgh based band since 2007, however back then they were known as 'The Mystic Floorboards' and as the years have gone by they've seen various members join & leave the band.  Finally the quad of Dan, Rory, Fergus & Jack created Bwani Junction in June 2009.

As well as being great guys they also create some amazing tunes too. They released their debut album 'Fully Cocked' in November 2011 & are currently touring the UK with the Little Comets, also a northern band based in Newcastle.  I remember seeing the Little Comets supporting One Night Only in 2008, so who knows where Bwani will be in 4 years time!

They played on the BBC Introducing stage last year at T in the Park; a summer music festival held in Perth. Due to such a great response they have been asked to perform again this year; no doubt they'll have even more fans by then.

Bwani are best known for their song 'Two Bridges', the first single of which they've created a music video for.  This song goes down a storm in places like Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh where the band are well known & have spurred a loyal gathering.

The band have also played a few gigs in London; Madame Jojo's in Soho, the Dublin Castle & The Barfly in Camden to name a few.  They are regularly played on BBC Introducing Scotland on Radio 1 & have been recognised by top DJs in up & coming music.


I strongly recommend that you download their album: Fully Cocked.
Also, take a peak at their video for 'Two Bridges' to give you a taste of what they're all about.

A brilliant young band, which we'll definitely hear more about in the near future.
