Whitby at Home - an online extravaganza!
Hello!
We should have been in Whitby for the Folk Week next week. Alas it has had to go online again for a second year running. But it means that followers around the world to my website can join me from the comfort of their own homes! We have a packed schedule! So where can you find us? I'll embed the YouTube videos as they become available!

Entry is by donation and you can register to get the link here.
If you want to play along we have, as always published the tune list!

You'll need an instrument for this one. Done with the nyckelharpa - but suitable for any instrument!

St Alban's New - (this will probably be second)
Hyde and Seek
One for His Nob
New England Square - (this will probably be third)
