Doors 7.30pm, dancing from 8 until 11pm.
Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer are two of the most versatile musicians of the folk circuit today. They have developed an enviable reputation for their ability to reimagine folk dance music; creating sounds that are simultaneously new and progressive, and yet entirely sympathetic to the tradition. Vicki plays nyckelharpa (Swedish keyed-fiddle), Jonny plays guitar and bouzouki and they both sing. Fun fact: they can also be spotted at castles and properties around the country as medieval minstrels and at the other on the silver screen with recordings and appearances at the cinema for Hollywood movies and TV programmes!
Fiddler and author, Tom Kitching is also a fantastic caller. He has great dances and a wonderful way of calling them. Tom uses gender neutral, positional calls
There is a licensed bar with ale, cider, wine and soft drinks.
Saving the planet - Oxfolk is no longer serving drinks in disposable glasses so please bring along your own reusable glasses or purchase an Oxfolk one at the bar.
