Connie and The Rogues — Quirky Charm Meets Raw Live Spark at Warsop Carnival

Connie and The Rogues didn’t just turn up at Warsop Carnival — they showed up with a set that was part kaleidoscope, part chaos, and 100% live.
Falling somewhere between indie-folk storytelling and leftfield pop eccentricity, the band delivered a performance brimming with originality. Connie’s vocals – elastic, expressive, and gloriously unpolished – led the charge through a set that bounced between playful originals and cheeky covers, each with their own rogue twist.
It’s hard to pin this lot down — and that’s exactly their strength. There’s a theatrical energy that pulses through every song, like a cabaret band who accidentally stumbled into a punk night and decided to stay. You get the sense they’re not just playing music; they’re telling stories, building little worlds in each track.
Their set at Warsop Carnival felt like the sonic equivalent of stepping into a pub where the jukebox has gone rogue — and you don’t want it to stop. They kept things intimate, loose, and totally live — and in a world of overproduced perfection, that honesty is magnetic.
One part mischief, one part heart, and one part total wildcard — Connie and The Rogues are the kind of act that remind you why local live music still matters. Loud, weird, and completely themselves.
