His Worship & The Pig

Dave Boulton
Vocals, guitar, acoustic bass guitar, bodhran, shakey egg, rubber glove (don't ask!)

Dave comes from Stoke-on-Trent, and has been performing on the folk scene in the area for around thirty years. He was a member of the five-man harmony group MUGGINS FANCY in the late '70s, and provided some of the comic highlights of their performances with his original monologues. He later helped form the ceilidh band CORNFIELD PERAMBULATION, playing bass guitar and leading much of the singing.

Jeff Parton

Vocals, guitar, mandolin, octave mandola, 4 & 5-string banjos, concertina, Indian harmonium, timple, tzouras, whistle

Jeff has been a well-known figure on the North Staffs folk scene since it started, having been a founder member of the first folk club in the area in 1962. (He also founded the Sheffield University Folk Club at the same time, and commuted between the two during term-time.) Jeff was also a founder member of both MUGGINS FANCY and CORNFIELD PERAMBULATION, and was Cornfield's resident caller and banjo player until the band split up in 1999. In 1964 Jeff took part in the pioneering musical documentary "The Jolly Potters" at the Victoria Theatre, Stoke-on-Trent. He went on to become the theatre's Musical Adviser, and composed and performed incidental music for over 50 productions. In recognition of his services to the theatre, a rehearsal room was named after him when the new theatre was opened in 1986.

Dave and Jeff started working together as His Worship and the Pig in 1989, with Jeff setting Dave's words to music. Since then they have built up a set of highly original, often very funny, often thought-provoking, but always highly singable songs, which have had enthusiastic responses from all sorts of audiences from folk clubs and festivals to Arts Centres and tennis clubs. Although Jeff and Dave are best known for being funny, their set also contains serious and reflective songs, some of which are being taken up by other singers, and even their funny songs usually have a serious point.

WinterWilson

Lincolnshire based musicians Dave Wilson and Kip Winter joined forces in 1995 and have steadily built a reputation across the UK for solid and engaging live performances, performing mostly original songs along with the odd well chosen cover.

Lincolnshire has a knack for producing fine singer-songwriters and Winter Wilson are very much in that mould. Dave's songs have a broad appeal whilst often relating to the sights and sounds of everyday local life and are now heard in many folk clubs throughout the country.

Described by John Tams as " A magnificent song writer" and folk legend Vin Garbutt has covered Dave's "Storm Around Tumbledown" on his CD "Persona Grata". Powerful lyrics combine with superb harmonies to produce songs to remember.

Kip's voice is one of the best in the business, coupling power and emotion. She's sung everything from Jazz to Opera, but is at her best when singing folk and blues. Great songs, great performance, and an off beat sense of humour give Winter Wilson a style that's very much their own.

With four albums of finely crafted songs to their credit, by the skin of our teeth (1996), Matter of Time (2001), I hear voices sing (2004) and their latest CD "These are the things" released to critical acclaim in January 07 they continue to gain new fans and respect from their peers.

So come and get cheered up at Faldingworth.

HW&TP are excellent, vastly underrated and an absolute must.
As I write I'm listening to one of their CDs, brilliantly entitled 'Look Back In 'Anley'.

Thanks for that Dave. You have sound judgement.

The same applies to WinterWilson

Am gigging, and maybe giggling, too, sorry, but hope it goes well and and judging on past nights at Faldingworth, it will be another good night. I still haven't heard His Worship and the Pig but have heard excellent reports and Winter Wilson are definitely worth hearing IMHO

Did they get the road opened again, Villan? Last time I went that way the detour was in place and you had to go a different way to Lincoln (and Faldingworth,) but I suspect it is all finished, now and the normal A46 route opened.

They always need VIP treatment, Les!! Sorry we won't be there - think of me watching Paul get drunk with his old RAF mates - I know where I'd rather be.

Some wonderful songs from both of them and a lot of great humour.
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Dont forget to check the back of your trousers or knickers this morning, especially if you smell sweeter than normal.
Just waiting for Mr Sooz to send me some photo's to put up on the website.

I have noted that M&G.
