We’re a Ramblers group aimed mainly at people in their 20s, 30s and slightly older, offering led walks and social events across Herts, Beds and south Cambs.
Join us at Cambridge Junction for an evening of folk music from The Gigspanner Big Band, performing their recently released, highly acclaimed album Turnstone.
The six-piece Gigspanner Big Band includes some of the most influential names on the British folk-roots scene, with Steeleye Span fiddle player Peter Knight, multi-instrumental duo Edgelarks (Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin) and Bellowhead co-founder and melodeon player John Spiers joined by percussionist Sacha Trochet and guitarist Roger Flack.
The band is described as "a unique force in British folk music… their high-energy, virtuosic performances appeal equally to traditionalists and to those looking for something more experimental."
You can watch a trailer for the Turnstone album on Youtube.
