Bartram, Brookes
& Weatherall
a rare chance to hear these three together, singing and playing a selection of English songs and dance tunes.
Chris 'Yorkie' Bartram has long been recognised as one of the finest singers “notâ€ð on the folk-club scene, being
far happier in an informal setting. As are Neil Brookes (fiddle) and TonyWeatherall (melodeon) who play
regularly together in sessions.

in the country who can sing the old songs
in a way which is utterly convincing - Chris is one of them….Rod Stradling:

A model of the way that English dance
