Topette!! at Kennington Village Centre, Oxford
Sun 11 Sep 2022 4:30 PM - 7:00 PM BST
Kennington Village Centre, OX1 5PG
Description
Topette!! occupies a unique position in the current folk and traditional music landscape. A collaboration between five highly-regarded individuals from two countries, they’re the kind of perfect idea that, if they didn’t already exist, someone would have to invent. Topette!! are a true collective - bonded as much by the joy found in each other’s company as in their shared musical vision.
Julien Cartonnet is a powerhouse on both bagpipes and banjo. Fiddler James Delarre’s innate melodic and harmonic sensibilities make him the perfect match for accordion virtuoso Andy Cutting. Tania Buisse’s propulsive bodhrán playing and Barn Stradling’s singularly distinctive bass grooves complete a sound that is irresistible to ears and feet alike.
The gig is in the late afternoon/early evening so people who travel to see the band can get home at a reasonable time! Doors open at 4pm. Dancing starts at 4.30pm and it ends at 7pm. Bar available.
There are no reserved seats but there will be plenty of chairs around the dance floor. If you have any access requirements, please let us know, ideally in advance, and we will assist.
We accept online payments here with PayPal. Please contact us directly for other options.
This gig is a co-promoted between Topette!! and Oxfolk.
