NEXT EVENT


20 February 

Steamchicken
                       

A firm favourite at festivals and dance clubs, Steamchicken is now established as one of the best and most in demand English Ceilidh bands, so we are delighted to welcome them to Sproughton's Tithe Barn. Steamchicken is a stomping, swinging, septet: jazz and blues brush shoulders with Playford and Cecil Sharp; harmonica and mandolin lead, underpinned by bass, piano and drums and a free blowing three piece horn section. Come along to listen and dance to echoes of half forgotten times and forbidden pleasures such as the Light Programme and Workers Playtime, the excitement of skiffle, R&B and jump bands, Doris Day with a bullwhip, half remembered TV themes and two way family favourites. Add to that one of the country's most popular and extravagant callers, Gordon Potts, to lead you through the dances, and you're in for an unforgettable evening.
