Live Music Concert: Three Idle Women (ABINGDON)

THIS IS A LIVE MUSIC GIG NOT A PUPPET SHOW

Three Idle Women sing with warmth and humour about life, love, adventure and the rich heritage of the UK’s waterways. Their beautifully blended close harmonies and a delightfully quirky array of instruments - including saw, propeller, ukuleles, concertina, trumpet, accordion - bring fresh life to traditional folk songs alongside a collection of their own.

Expect stories of waterways people and places, along with an abundance of friendship and community. Suitable for all ages - for land-lubbers and canal enthusiasts alike.

“If these songs don’t delight you, I can only conclude that you’re made either of iron or of concrete.” At the barrier.


“Channelling the storytelling of The Unthanks and the warmth of The Staves, yet stands on its own as a heartfelt tribute to England's waterways and the people who call them home.” Damon Boughen, Nightshift.
