Captain Swing have been playing for our Ceilidhs for many a year and as such have brought us lots joy and sore feet. The band, which celebrated it's 20th anniversary last year, comprises Liz Griffiths (recorders, anglo-concertina, tenor sax, percussion), Rob James (guitar), Andy Casserley (melodeon, anglo-concertina, clarinet), John Davis (bass guitar, recorder) and their caller Mike Griffiths, who keeps us on our toes.

It gives us great pleasure to welcome back Tom the wonderful Geordie fiddler and vocalist with yet another young talented musician and singer David. The onstage rapport between these two and the joy of performing together shine through their performance. Tom’s humour is a bonus both for us and David. Come early for a seat.
The Ancient Legacy–takes us on a journey through the seasons and the farming year both past and present celebrating them in music, song, poetry and humorous sketches. Narrators introduce you to the modern farmer struggling with ministry documents, and the ploughboy of long ago as they journey through Spring ploughing, haymaking and harvest until Christmas celebrations before starting again with another year.
