George is a North East institution known for hilarious stories, driving tunes on guitar and moving songs in a fine baritone voice. The quintessential folk club entertainer, George will once again be performing in Cramlington (on Weds 20th Feb) and in Stockton (on Mon 25th Feb) and I am delighted to be joining him – come along and join in the fun!

Fancy a few tunes?Just a couple of days until the January Workshops on Zoom. There's a relaxed Friday evening of tunes to play-along to on any instrument and the dots (including tunes, harmonies and chords) are provided. Plus there are two Fiddle Workshops on Saturday, each teaching a tune and fiddle techniques aimed at a different level. Visit the website for full details and booking info. All resources are provided and workshops are recorded and available on YouTube after the event.

Gearing up for a new block at North East Fiddle School!~~~
A new year, a new block of online fiddle tuition!
We begin again at NEFS on Weds 13th Jan and bookings are now open. There will be five weeks of material - video tutorials to teach techniques and tunes, and live Zoom workshops for Fiddle Practice techniques and learning core repertoire tunes. Recordings of the workshops will be available afterwards too, so you can access all of the materials at any time you choose!
Full details are on the website linked in the event information below. (Sadly the course isn't free as the event shows 🙁 I can't get the FB event to show the price unless it's a Paid FB event! There are also 5 weeks of video tutorials and Zoom workshops, but I couldn't find the event scheduling feature - is it just me today?!?!?!)
We hope you can join our friendly community of fiddle players!
