Winter Folk at The Canopy Theatre
“WINTER FOLK” Canopy Theatre, Hungate Church Beccles Saturday 14th December 7.30 p.m.
A special seasonal show to raise funds for the Hungate Church weekly foodbank. Experienced local artists will feature original, contemporary and traditional songs for Christmas and the winter season, set against the backdrop of a full size Nativity scene and lit, decorated, Christmas trees!
Peter and Jane are a folk duo from Suffolk, who love making music. Their original songs and tunes are influenced by the broad spectrum that is the folk genre and their performances always include a joyful selection of traditional material, arranged to suit the duo’s voices and instruments. These instruments include flute, whistles, guitar, banjo and small pipes.
Whether playing Scottish airs, Irish jigs & reels, or singing bluegrass favourites, traditional ballads or one of their own songs Peter and Jane have an accomplished and thoughtful style centred around close harmony between instruments and voices.
They recently performed at the inaugural Bungay Folk Festival and supported Canadian singer/songwriter Dan McKinnon when he came to the Canopy Theatre in Beccles in October. Their set for “Winter Folk” will obviously contain different material to that performance. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClj0s2I7uFWT4pTiDnIWz7A
