Moonrakers Folk Concert in Christ Church

Occuring
for 3 hours
Venue
Christ Church, Swindon
Address
Cricklade Street Swindon, SN1 3HB, United Kingdom

Moonrakers is an Oxford-based group of four musicians who pride themselves in having brought traditional and contemporary folk music to new audiences in village halls, churches, arts centres and festivals across the UK.

The fact that the band “just OOZES quality” (Living Tradition) is down to the careful arrangements and selection of tunes and songs, presenting “exquisite music” (BBC). The material is a combination of traditional Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English music and their own contemporary songs and tunes, still very much ‘in the idiom’.

Dates/Times
19:00-22:00 Saturday, 23rd March, 2024. Doors open 7pm for a 7.30pm start. Pay bar available.

Venue
Christ Church, Cricklade Street, Swindon, SN1 3HB

Tickets
Adult (16+): £10.00 + £0.50
Child: £6.00 + £0.50
