Dear Everyone,
Booking is now open. Last time Tommy came we had a huge waiting list, so early booking is essential to avoid disappointment. Tommy performs at the Lewes Saturday Folk Club in the evening; advance tickets are available at £9 each (see booking form below).
All the best,

Elephant & Castle White Hill Lewes BN7 2DJ www.elephantandcastlelewes.co.uk
Tommy Peoples is, quite simply, a living legend, the greatest exponent of the driving Donegal style which is his hallmark. A founding member of the Bothy Band, his 1999 solo CD The Quiet Glen earned him his country's highest accolade as 'Musician of the Year', the first person to be so honoured by the Irish Government. His website address is http://homepage.tinet.ie/~logo/tommy.htm.
The workshop will concentrate on ornamentation & bowing. Questions will be welcome.
Tommy will teach some unusual tunes. He will either do the notation on the day or bring copies of a choice of tunes.
