Sonny has already been to Dulwich Folk with the Goblin Band in January and his return as a solo performer is keenly anticipated. An outstanding box player and singer, he is a testament to the truth that if you pick your songs well and if you sing them with passion and commitment traditional song can continue to speak to us; that the dangers , beliefs, hardships and love they describe have a continuing relevance. And that another world is possible!

Sonny lives on a narrowboat and is influenced by, is a successor to, and builds on the legacy of, Peter Bellamy, Martin Carthy and Nic Jones (among others!) .

 

Get here early!

Rholben gave us a wonderful night in 2022 and we are more than pleased to get them back. Also a great success in 2022 was the afternoon singing harmony workshop so they will be holding another this year in the afternoon to teach a Welsh song  which participants will sing during the gig in the evening.

​

They play Welsh traditional music with tenderness, wit, and deep emotion. Siriol Davies is a really beautiful singer and is supported by thoughtful guitar, melodic bass, sweeping strings, and brilliant harmonies to create a sound that feels light and current whilst also feeling as weighty and old as the hill from which they take their name. They are Siriol Davies Vocals, Oboe John Ruddock Guitar Colin Fletcher Double Bass Jane Griffiths Viola, Fiddle Giles Lewin Fiddle

 

Entrance to the gig £15

Afternoon singing workshop £10

Joint entrance afternoon and evening £20.
