Our traditional birthday bash!Doors 7.30pm & Dance Workshop - a chance to learn (or just brush up on) some of the dances, before the nos lowen proper begins.
Tonight's nos lowen bands:
Skillywidden - Legends of Cornish Celtic dance music, Skillywidden are renowned for whipping up ecstatic nights of dancing with their take on the nos lowen style of Cornish music and dance.
The line-up includes former members of internationally acclaimed Cornish traditional music band Dalla on bouzouki, fiddle, clarinets, viola and percussion, with the addition of guest musicians (including pipes and horns) drawn from the cream of Cornwall’s talent in this and other genres, such as jazz and world music. Their exhilarating performances convey the sheer joy they take in Cornwall’s indigenous culture.
“Sublime …a kind of World Music with a Cornish accent” (Rock ‘n’ Reel)
"…a sonic swirl of pipes, fiddle, clarinet, bouzouki and trombone, Cornish band Skillywidden are holding court on stage" (The Guardian)
The Manaccanites - two of the 'Mighty Manaccanites': featuring Cornish music legend Neil Davey (Skillywidden/Dalla/Davey&Hunt) on bouzouki, and the ridiculously talented Dan Woodfield (Everywhere!) on saxophone and whistles.
