Hope to see you at one of our upcoming gigs so you can enjoy our multi-instrumental arrangements of music mainly from the folk tradition. With six voices and about 20 instruments, we’ll bring you songs and tunes from England, Scotland, Ireland, France and beyond – jigs, slip jigs, and reels; schottisches and polkas; a hint of Kletzmer, ska, and swing; and songs about love, crime, hardship and, on occasion, beer!
