Event information
The Water Chorus are Ali Lawrenson (fiddle, banjo, concertina), Jack Saville (guitar, bouzouki, bodhran) and Caitlin Chalmers (vocals, shruti box) – three friends who decided that, with so many weird instruments, there was no excuse not to form a folk band. Since 2022, they have carved out a reputation for their joyful, energetic live shows and their imaginative reimagining of traditional songs, headlining gigs across London, playing festivals and appearing at folk clubs across the capital.
Following a hard years’ gigging, this December they’re rounding off 2024 by returning to the Water Rats for their inaugural (possibly) Christmas bash. Expect songs of snow, sin and sacrilege as they round off another fairly bleak year by bringing the festive party. Mince pies may or may not be provided.
Support comes from the wonderful Duncan McTaggart. Duncan is a traditional musician and multi-instrumentalist, playing original arrangements of old, sometimes obscure, trad songs. He can always be found at the Folk of the Round Table singaround in Peckham
