Here's an opportunity to take part in our island festival (4th-9th April). It's been fully booked since last summer. Three folk have recently had to cancel. If you'd like to join us for this joyful celebration of music, community and place in this beautiful Hebridean setting you can find out all about it, and register, on the festival website.

All three places are for the easier mixed instrument workshops

Just heard that Dave Shepherd has died. He wrote some awesome tunes - here he is with Anna Pack playing my favourite of them, Rose of Raby https://youtu.be/xb460hMHqrE

International Bagpipe Day is a good day to listen to The Wild Hills of Wannie, but then so is every other day of the year…

Back to everyday life (sigh) after a beautiful weekend surrounded by musicians at Nyckelharpawochenende Süd in Balingen! 💚

I enjoyed teaching my intermediate class so much and it's always such a pleasure to meet up with the nyckelharpa family from around the globe, to jam and chat and nerd out 💚

If you're looking for really cool, well-organised folkmusic workshop weekends, do check out https://www.nyckelharpawochenende.de - there are also beginner nyckelharpa workshops and an ensemble open to all instruments! This year's Northern Germany edition in May even has a hurdy gurdy class! 👀

In case you need to know, you can now order the new Leveret tunebook that is out in a couple of weeks - it accompanies the album that came out last autumn, and follows another tunebook that came out longer ago… see https://leveretband.com/music-shop

I finally got around to ordering all three, the download of the album is really good and I’m looking forward to the books arriving :-)
