Dulwich Folk are delighted to welcome back our local folk supergroup! Tamesas are three women who work in music, and Tamesas reflects their wide musical interests with a definite Celtic emphasis. (Tamesas is a Celtic work for Thames). Expect great harmonies with songs and music from the UK, Europe and America using among others fiddle, Bodhran, ukulele, flute and shruti box using gentle storytelling to driving, funky up-tempo rhythms.
Aimee Leonard is originally from Orkney but many of us know her well as she leads the Dulwich folk choir! Aimee is a mighty singer and in an earlier life was a singer and bodhran player with the Irish band Anam. Aimee runs folk community projects, teaches on the Newcastle folk degree course and is a voice and singing coach.
Kate Jones hails from Somerset and has been playing fiddle since forever, particularly in ceildh bands out west and in various folk collective projects. Her fiddle playing is influenced by blue grass, Irish and European styles and she has recently developed a passion for Welsh tunes . Kate is a music therapist.
Emmie Ward grew up with folk music and is a fine traditional singer who also plays flute, ukelele, and tin whistle. She’s currently leads Folk Unlimited at Cecil Sharp House.
As always there'll be songs from our excellent residents Shotley Crue and Sarah and Ian and songs/tunes from the floor.
Get there early - this is going to be a great night. Entrance is £12
