An evocative mix of minstrel and trail songs; old-time country music; western swing, blue grass etc. with a great line-up of instruments including bass; banjo; guitar; dulcimer; ukelele, autoharp etc.
9th July Singaround
16th July Dick Miles Welcome back to our most-booked guest who always provides a great night of traditional song (with a few of his own songs thrown in). His laid-back style doesn't conceal a real feeling for his music, complemented by artful concertina and guitar.
23rd July Singaround
30th July Emily Weygang & Ben Harker A wonderful musical partnership - Emily is a great singer and interpreter of traditional songs, while Ben is a superb and innovative accompanying guitarist. Add some fiddle, whistle and harmonies for a very entertaining mix.
