Pete Cooper & Richard Bolton : The Old Nun's Head,15 Nunhead Green, London SE15 3QQ. Friday 13 March, 7.45pm, £7.

Floorspots very welcome.


'Cooper and Bolton' are Pete Cooper (fiddle, mandolin and vocals) and Richard Bolton (cello and guitar). They've played numerous gigs at folk clubs and many festivals .Their musical influences are diverse, but they identify their music - both traditional tunes and songs, and their own highly original new pieces - as 'Contemporary English Roots'.

They find a potent source of musical inspiration, and historical focus, in the strange affinity between English fiddle music in its pre-Victorian heyday, which was surprisingly diverse in its sources and inspiration.

"...tremendous feel and focus" Chris Mills, Fiddle On
