We welcome back Tom McConville, this wonderful fiddle player and vocalist from Tyneside, who brings a wealth of talent and experience to share with us tonight. Tom is well respected by the many people he has worked with, but I think his magic comes to the fore in front of a live audience as the tunes flow, sometimes at breakneck speed other times in a halting but beautiful slow air all interspersed with a dry wit. The songs and tunes range from his beloved North East to Ireland, USA and beyond. There will be plenty of opportunities to join in the choruses.
