Oxfolk Ceilidh with Narthen incl callers Jo Freya and Fi Fraser
Sat 14 Dec 2024 8:00 PM - 11:00 PM GMT
Kennington Village Centre, OX1 5PG
Description
After their last packed visit, we are so pleased that Narthen is returning to Oxfolk. They are an exciting, joyous and sometimes
surprising quartet of family and friends: Jo Freya on sax, clarinet and
whistles, Fi Fraser on fiddle and hammered dulcimer, Sarah Matthews on
viola and fiddle, and Doug Eunson on melodeon. They are all superb dance
musicians, interpreters of traditional tunes, and composers.
Collectively they are also members of dance bands such as Blowzabella,
Token Women, Old Swan Band, Moirai and Cupola.
Jo and Fi make a wonderful calling double act, as you'll know if
you've ever seen them with Token Women. The dances they choose are fun,
varied and perfectly paired with the music the band plays.
Non-gendered calls will be used.
There will be seasonal half-time entertainment - more news soon.
Doors 7.30pm, dancing from 8 until 11pm.
There is a licensed bar with ale, cider, wine and soft drinks.
