Zapoppin' are an English alternative band from Falmouth. As of 2016, the group consists of Luke Richards on organ and vocals, and Matthew Collington on drums and vocals.

The band have been noted for their 'black humour and obtuse lyrical themes' by Clash,[1] and were said that they 'could be the face of a new strain of folk once everyone has recovered from their Mumford measles' by 247 Magazine.[2]
