Following a joyous couple of weeks singing (even once or twice on TEA!) in Cheshire and Aberdeenshire, we are in rehearsals for our Summer Festivals!

We will be performing a full concert of our collaborations with the DMA at the 10th Hartlepool Folk Festival this year! Lots to do! We look forward to meeting up with many of you over the coming months!
