Subject: [eceilidh] Call for dancers

MoonDance is hosting a small Callers' workshop in Dunstable on Sunday 14th June.
We're going to be exploring the 'rolling start' approach to calling e-ceilidh dances.

There will be a workshop during the day followed by an informal dance in the
evening (6-9pm), for which we are looking for a small group of 8 to 12
dancers. So anyone who want a free, personalised dance session with some
well known callers.

Please email me at info_at_moondance_dot_org_dot_uk if you would like an invitation.

Subject: Second Sunday in June ~ Conrad Vingoe plays Songs in The Bluebell Room


Middlemarch Ltd                                                       www.secondsunday.co.uk

********************************************************************************
Second Sunday of the month DrBoKarma introduces
Songs in The Bluebell Room
The Wok Inn at Shortgate, Halland  BN8 6PJ

 

Conrad Vingoe plays Second Sunday
with Danni Nicholls in support
Sunday afternoon June 14th

        

 
Conrad Vingoe's songs are fresh and intelligent - melancholic, euphoric and off-kilter. A regular on the Brightonscene, Conrad has played alongside Kate Walsh, Turin Brakes, Passenger and the Miserable Rich, some of whom appear as guest artists on his album “Spare Buttons and Bones”.

 

DrBo says: “We met Conrad when producer Tim Bidwell presented an evening of artists he’s been working with. Inspiring stuff! Conrad tells me that Vingoe is a Cornish name – do I sense something of the deep west and even a dash of Celtic in his very poetic sound? Perhaps… or I’m imagining things.”

 

Conrad “... takes standard folk-like forms back to their essence - his touch is deft - the songs inhabit you...”  Americana-uk.com

 

"... intimate and intense."  South:Live
 
***
Danni Nicholls
 

“… an inspirational person with a great ear for a melody.”  Damian Keyes
 
DrBo says: “Danni cites Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry amongst her influences. Certainly you can hear a directness and clear sense of purpose in her songs, but as well there’s a sweet-tasting country thing going on. Funnily enough, we met Danni at the same show that we met Conrad, presented by Tim Bidwell, with whom she’s been recording. We didn’t set out to get Danni and Conrad to play the same Second Sunday, but that’s where fate has led us (since Edwina Hayes had to relinquish the slot to tour with Roger McGuinn). The outcome, I think, will be a show of quite remarkable quality!”
