Here's a fairly new duo, performing mainly traditional songs and ballads with inventive close harmony arrangements or instrumental accompaniment. However, Sue has much experience as a harmony singer with various groups; while Paul has long played guitar and Appalachian dulcimer in several bands. They now bring these skills together in a delightful mix of material, presented with obvious enjoyment. The duo were once described by a reviewer as “an unmarriage made in heaven”......!
Graeme's rich baritone voice draws you to join in the singing. His repertoire encompasses traditional love songs, mining songs, shanties, gospel songs, drinking and Music Hall songs and some more recently written contemporary songs – many with good enjoyable and sing able choruses. His delivery and presence make for a most memorable evening. Come and give your lungs an airing for Graeme’s first visit.
Graham Meek and Barry Goodman present “Where the working boats went”, an evening of music, song and story about the history of the working boats on the canals, complete with costumes and a slideshow. Cracking songs mostly self penned, great accompaniment and plenty of opportunity to join in. A night not to be missed by the many fans of waterways.
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.
