To bad it's an ocean away, I only wish. Nice to see they're being supported by Two Black Sheep & A Stallion.

The Copper tradition is in truley capable hands, but being an ocean and a continent away it's a shame I and my family can't be there at either gig.

Just to let you know that the Young Coppers (Bob Copper's grandchildren) release their first album today. The launch concert, which will be a party if they've got anything to do with it is at Cecil Sharp House on Thursday 27th March - tickets are available from 'The House'. Bright young things from the current folk music scene will be guesting.
The 'beat goes on'...Coppers, music, tradition,,,,geddit?

Dave,
We could do with some singers in the audience to encourage participation, as you know, the majority of the stuff we do the audience is expected join in, the bigger the chorus the better1

Saw the Young Coppers at the Gosport and Fareham Easter Festival. They were tremendous and the audience did sing along. Only problem was - they weren't on stage long enough!

Worthy upholders of the Tradition

Love and Peace

I also saw them at the Gosport and Fareham Festival, MairSea. I second your comments.

I saw them at the Loughborough Festival and again most people joined in. I was a bit depressed by the thought that most of the audience - including me! - had been singing these songs longer than the Young Coppers had been alive ...

Still, you can hardly blame them for that!

I was first hooked on Bob and Ron, and in the early days of the next generation I wasn't that keen on some of the voices, to be honest. The Young Coppers are, in my view, appreciably better than those early days of their parents.
