Crucible perform an exciting mix of energetic tunes, rich and evocative harmony singing and subtle accompaniment for a unique programme of English traditional material, ably complemented by their own compositions in the same style. They combine three joyfully distinct voices with a range of traditional instruments, including fiddle, melodeon, guitar and cittern. Members of the band have many years’ experience with dance bands GloryStrokes, Hekety and new projects Melrose Quartet and Albion band.

We welcome back Brian for his third visit. He has a vast repertoire of songs collected from people he meets when he performs in the villages of his beloved Lincolnshire. Even if we know the song he will bring something new to it and he is also an accomplished musician. So come along and be enthralled both by the songs and the stories behind them.

Pete Coe is a versatile performer. He sings both contemporary and traditional material, dances and plays (sometimes all together) which can leave you breathless but doesn’t seem to bother him!  Pete’s own songs have been regarded as modern classics and are performed the length and breadth of the country often by people who think they are singing traditional songs. He is very popular at the club so come early for a seat.

What better guest to have on the eve of St Patrick’s Day then Bonnie and Dan Milner. First visit to our club but no strangers to folk music on either side of the pond. We are looking forward to some fine harmony singing from this American duo. And I am sure there will be enough Irish material to keep your shamrock wet.
