NEXT EVENT


20 March 

The Hosepipe Band
                       

The Hosepipe Band is an electro-acoustic barn dance band playing traditional and newly composed material. Rhythmic and melodic, the band's sound mixes British and European influences. The band line-up includes Val Woollard on recorders, flute, saxophone, bagpipes, bombarde (sorry!), hammered dulcimer and wind-controller, Simon Haines playing melodeons and hurdy-gurdy, Geoff Coombs on mandolin and mandola, and Nick Sadler on bass guitar.

Our caller for the dancing is Elaine Barker, a very experienced and popular local caller who also organises the Colchester Folk Club.
