The Expatriate Game (Baker / Boyle / Paley)

Irish & American Traditional Music

"....beautiful music, beautifully played....Ben and Maggie have the ability to do more than just engage your critical acclaim; they can ignite your emotions or break your heart slowly if they choose and the fabulous Baker boy has the surgical skill and technique, the wit and the musical charm to stitch it all back together again."   Neil Dalton

Touring 18th - 28th October (also now booking February & May '08 dates)

The Witches of Elswick 

"Hanging up the Broomsticks"  The final Halloween tour!

“This is an unmissable opportunity to experience a genuine folk phenomenon. Unaccompanied harmony interpretations of traditional songs with a modern leavening. Absolute brilliance.” Faversham Folk Club

Sorry, but it's true, 2007 is the last chance to book this wild foursome. (The good news is that they will continue to appear together with Grace Notes in the 7-part a cappella extravaganza, WitchNotes)

Touring 26th October - 4th November (limited dates remaining)
