If you weren't at the Mossy Christian & Megan Wisdom concert on 20 Sept you missed an absolutely fabulous evening : two young, vibrant and talented musicians delivering traditional folk songs and tunes with stunning vocals and harmonies and expert playing. Supported by the even younger wonderful Harty Family Band of siblings with their delightful fresh approach of uplifting songs and inspired musicianship. There's another chance to see the Harty Band on Sat 28 Sept 7pm - 11pm at St Joseph's Club, Brinscall PR6 8QP. Poster below.

Vicki & Jonny 2.jfif

Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer effortlessly blend traditional material with contemporary sounds. Their performances showcase new interpretations of old songs alongside original self penned tunes and new contemporary songs that are entirely at home in the tradition.

Vicki is a brilliant and versatile classical and folk musician. She studied double bass at the Royal College of Music and also plays various types of bagpipes, flute, recorder, piano and, probably most famously, the nyckelharpa  (come along if you want to find out what this is). 

Jonny plays guitar, piano, bouzouki, citole and harpsicord. His outstanding technical ability, together with a wide musical taste in folk, soul, jazz and choral music, have made him a tireless and forceful innovator and an inventive composer.

As well as giving compelling and mesmorising concerts, Vicki and Jonny have an extensive tunes repertoire in various genres and hold dances, including medieval and Playford. Their workshops are also greatly enjoyed and they will be visiting Edgworth Primary School to spread the joy of music.
