Event information
Join us for a wonderful evening of dancing at the next installment of our ceilidh series in the magnificent St John's Waterloo... with the amazing band Banter!
www.banter.band
Banter are: Simon Care on melodeon & concertina, Nina Zella on keyboards & vocals, Tim Walker on drums, percussion, brass, guitar, bass & vocals and Mark Jolley on bass, fiddle, guitar & vocals.
Four fine musicians whose roots are firmly in the traditional English genre, but who enjoy stretching the limits.
Formed in 2015, they realised that a common love for the living traditions of English song and dance music was at their core and began to pursue it’s evolution, bringing in flavours from a wider palette of musical influences.
They have gained a reputation for being powerfully unique in the English traditional music genre. Their popularity has placed them in great demand to perform at many of the UK’s largest festivals including: Glastonbury, Cambridge Folk Festival, Broadstairs Folk Week, Sidmouth Folk Festival, Whitby Folk Week, Folk East, Oxford Folk Week, Wickham Festival, Gate To Southwell Festival and Towersey Festival as well as internationally at European festivals such as Rudolstadt (Germany) and Costa festivals in Portugal and Ibiza.
They are joined by the mighty Martin Clarke to call the dances - one of the country's leading ceilidh dance callers.
***AND*** Special guests to be announced!
This is a fun and inclusive evening of music and dancing. No experience necessary - all the dances are carefully explained. Come with friends or by yourself - it's a great way to meet new people. Bar provided.
