Dressed to impress, the band are always clad in stylish outfits depending on the venue and situation. If you have a dress code just let us know!


The Cacti Collective were formed when Cath Short and Ben Chetwood moved from London to Manchester at the start of 2018. They decided to create “an actually cool function band” and enlisted the help of friend Joe Woolf. Between them they have an eclectic taste in music that they are able to seamlessly blend when they play. Caths soulful jazzy voice sits perfectly on top of Joes looped guitar which makes the sound of 3 extra musicians on stage. All backed up by Ben on drums and percussion who provides bubbling jazzy rhythms to stomping floor filling beats.
