Dates for your diary
Hello from the beautiful Allen Valleys. We hope you are well and life is good. A couple of dates for your diary …
Are ye dancin’?
Banter Ceilidh at Allendale Village Hall
Described as “The future of Folk”, Banter take English traditional music to the next level with their iconic interpretations of classic songs and dance tunes.
Equally in demand as a dance band, Banter will treat us to a ceilidh at Allendale Village Hall on the evening of Thursday 18th June.
Doors open at 7:00pm, with dancing from 7:30pm to 9:30pm. Tickets are £12 and available online or via Allendale Co-op. Those aged 14 and under are free but must be accompanied by an adult.
A home gig for Saul …
James Delarre and Saul Rose at Allendale Village Hall
We are delighted to welcome James and Saul back to Allendale on the evening of Thursday 25th of June.
With the timeless combination of fiddle and box, James and Saul have been making music together for a long time now. The duo intertwine seamlessly; dancing around the tunes between the notes, finding space and air, and breathing fresh life and energy into the music.
Tickets are £12 and available at Allendale Co-op and online.
Doors will open at 7:00pm with the music starting at 7:30pm.
Please come along to our Banter ceilidh and James and Saul gig. It would be great to see you there.
Thanks and all the best,
Craig, Kate, Phillip, Nick, Oran, Tim, Sue, Peter, Glynn, Caitlin, Hollie, Bryony and Kerry
