Tom McConville makes a welcome return to the Diamond. Fiddler and singer extraordinaire with a warm personality that that can hold the room mesmerised with his music and song. His repertoire ranges from songs and tunes of his beloved Newcastle to Irish slow airs and Scottish hornpipes and reels. Come early he is popular.

Lorraine Irwing and Sue Brown over the years the girls have built up quite a rapport with our audience. Their choice of material is well suited to two part harmony and they are always on the lookout for slightly different versions of traditional material which they can mould to their liking. Ballads and tales from the British Isles with the odd sojourn to the Americas all served up with a smile. Come and learn the choruses.
