Patterson Jordan Dipper Patterson Jordan Dipper play a variety of English and European music. Their repertoire includes everything from Swedish bridal waltzes, the songs of Pete Morton, Mike Waterson and Ewan McColl, to the delightful lyrics of Flanders and Swann. The band's wide spread of talent on guitars, concertinas, fiddle, bouzouki and cittern blended with the rich haunting voice of James Patterson produces one of the most powerful performances that the folk world has seen for many years!
In the few months since the release of their debut album, the band have been played by Andy Kershaw and Fiona Talkington on BBC Radio 3, Mike Harding on BBC Radio 2, John Peel on BBC Radio 1 as well as being played worldwide by many radio stations. "If you haven't seen this band yet, track them down at all costs. Drive 200 miles if you have to - you will not be disappointed." - Living Tradition.

Keith Kendrick "Keith was a good singer before most of us had even started" - John Tams.
As a member of "The Druids" (1968-72) he influenced many a new singer. He then moved on to "Tup", "Ram's Bottom", "Muckram Wakes", "The East Kent Hoppers", the "Anchor Men" and "Three Sheets to the Wind", not to mention collaborations with Barry Coope and Lynne Heraud.
Throghout he has also performed as a solo singer, accompanying himself on English Concertina, Anglo Concertina and Guitar. Last year he became one of the most photographed entertainers when, armed with trusty concertinas, he entertained the visitors to Sea World in Japan. Make the most of him whilst he's a little nearer home.

Barrie Temple Barrie and Ingrid have been performing as a duo for over 25 years, during which time they have also been members of harmony groups "Legend" and "Salt of the Earth".
Barrie plays English Concertina and Guitar and is gaining a reputation for song writing in the traditional style. They have performed all over the UK, Europe and the USA and are well respected for their harmony singing and their original arrangements.
This delightful couple from Newcastle help continue the North East's reputation for the strength and development of traditional song and music.
