If you're not already booked to go to Melodeons & More, we've got a cracking series of events lined up at Frittenden on the weekend of the 26th March. (Sorry about the clash of dates Katie!)
Invited weekend performers include Will Duke (singer, anglo player), Andy Turner (singer, anglo and melodeon player), Annie Dearman (singer) and Steve Harrison (singer, melodeon, harmonica ), and Peter Collins (singer). Peta Webb and Ken Hall (singers) appear on Sunday evening.
I think the sessions on Saturday lunchtime and Sunday evening in particular will be terrific, and will be just the job for many players on this forum. Of course, Julie and I will also be there with our instruments.
