Sunday 11th March Wendy Arrowsmith
www.wendyarrowsmith.com
Born and raised in the
suburbs of Glasgow, Wendy has been singing for as long as she can remember.
Her musical influences as a child were mostly Trad Jazz or Church hymns!
Although she learnt Burns and other traditional Scottish songs at school, it
wasn?t until she moved to England to marry that she began to delve deeply
into traditional folk music.
In just over two years performing on the folk music scene, Wendy has
delighted audiences across the UK from as far a field as Aberdeen to Kent.
She is not only recognised for her fine interpretations of traditional songs
but also for her own award-winning song-writing. Wendy accompanies herself
mainly on guitar, and also plays accordion, mandolin, whistles and bodhran although
she really sees herself as "a singer who plays some other
instruments!"
Admission ?5 (members ?3) Under 21s free.
Sunday 18th March Dave Webber & Anni
Fentiman
www.oldandnewtradition.com/daveandanni/
Dave and Anni made
their duo debut on stage at the Eisteddfod Festival in Dartmouth
Massachusetts in 1993 to begin a very successful career as a harmony duo,
working largely acapella and featuring mainly traditional and traditional
idiom material. They have worked extensively in the UK and the USA to much
acclaim and now have five albums of their own to set alongside the Beggars
Velvet recording, which is still in demand after many pressings.
As well as touring concert venues, clubs and festivals Dave and Anni have
also been involved in a number of special musical and dramatic productions on
both sides of the Atlantic. They toured provincial theatres in England in
96/97 taking substantial singing and acting roles in the stage musical
"The Widows Uniform" a fully dramatised production of Rudyard Kipling's
Barrack Room Ballads. And more recently, in the USA, they took the parts of
Henry and Susannah in Peter Bellamy's Ballad opera "The
Transports".
Dave and Anni have featured on both local and national radio in Britain and
also performed a live concert (with studio audience) for Radio WGBH in
Boston, USA.
Although Dave and Anni perform substantially at home in the UK they also make
at least one trip each year to the United States, where they have an
established following and have also performed in Holland, Denmark and
Finland.
Anni has developed a specialist repertoire of songs originating from her
native North East, and Dave has been writing songs in traditional vein since
1982 many of these are widely sung and have become part of the general song
repertoire of singers all over the world. Dave Webber has that rare gift of
writing songs that sound traditional.
