Could I bring to your attention: -
"ALL THE BIRDS OF THE AIR"
Lewes musicians & singers Vic & Tina Smith (www,users.globalnet.co.uk/~tinvic) of the Sussex Pistols & Folk at the Royal Oak bring a multi-media show celebrating our feathered friends in song, tune, verse & folklore, with many illustrations. The live performance will be interspersed with a few recordings of relevant songs from some of Britain's finest traditional singers and many slides of the birds featured in the songs.. Tina plays English concertina & Vic plays guitar & mandola. They premiered this show at Tenterden Folk Festival in October to a capacity crowd. This attention has already gained the show a number of bookings at folk clubs in South-East England.
The rest of the evening will be filled by members of the audience performing a song or tune if they wish.
Everyone is welcome, especially if you'd like to sing or play. We mostly sing and play traditional music from the British Isles, but we enjoy other styles as well. We always start off with some English dance tunes for anyone with an instrument to join in.
