Rail Replacement Bus Service

Rail Replacement Bus Service are a Leeds-based songwriting collective founded by Tom Hammond after his former band, Heir, came to an end. Joined by Lily Sturt-Bolshaw (Sunflower Thieves) and George Harris (Askies), the group blends alternative and folk influences into heartfelt, engaging stories. Debuting with Volume I in April 2025, they follow a unique “new song every month” approach, building a growing catalogue of reflective, collaborative music. This autumn, they’re taking their debut LP, Volumes 1+2, on tour across some of the UK’s less-visited towns, bringing their music to audiences often overlooked by bigger tours.
