Next up for tomorrow's meadow sessions......
Sam Baxter + Merle Harbron

Sam Baxter and Merle Harbron are an Anglo/Scottish duo creating dynamic, full-
bodied arrangements of contemporary and traditional music. Using fiddle, drones and
voice, the pair build vibrant musical landscapes, weaving together melodic lines
inspired and improvised from traditional songs and dance music.
Two highly-skilled musicians, Sam Baxter and Merle Harbron create intimate
performances that in an instance can pivot from reflective and nuanced to driving and
energetic. Together, they are a force of nature; captivating audiences with their
infectious interplay and magnetic musical spirit.
They will be joining Finlay Rushworth and Rapasa Nyatrapasa Otieno
Event starts at 6pm and it is all free

First up on Thursday 23rd July for our meadow sessions is Finlay Rushworth.

Finlay Rushworth performs a repertoire of traditional and original songs. After almost a decade of performing traditional material he has developed a style of arrangement based on subtle variations from the source material which help the song to fit his voice and allow him to express the sentiments of songs through his performance
Joining him will be

Just heard the super sad news that the allotments behind the Cumberland were broken into last this week and all the tools have been stolen.
I have set up a just giving page to see if we can raise the money to get them going again.
Projects such as TopSoil run out of here and so many other amazing communities groups and charities too.

If you have any spare change please consider a donation.
