SUMMARY:Hase Waits with support TBC

Using a variety of instruments that include Low Whistles\, Hurdy-Gurdy\, Flutes\, Fiddle\, Guitar\, Bass and Percussion\, they create a sound which captivates and shows a profound respect for the musical heritage they embody. \nThe bands’s name\, formed of two words – ‘Hase’ being the name in the Domesday Book of the town that the band was formed (Hessle) and ‘Waits’ the name the town musicians were called in medieval times.\nHase Waits are sisters – Hannah Bainton & Heather Thomas\, two exceptional flauists & low whistlers\, who have been playing together since the age of 6 & 7! fiddler Phil Ball\, guitarist/hurdy-gurdyist James Thomas\, bassist Luke Hirst & percussionist Gary Hammond. \nTheir music is made up of traditional music fused with their own compositions as James\, Heather & Hannah are prolific composers in the genre. \nThey have performed at many reputable venues & festivals across the UK\, including Beverley Folk Festival\, Beardy Folk Festival\, Gate To Southwell Festival and Underneath The Stars Festival. \nWhether playing in intimate folk clubs or on larger festival stages\, the band captivates audiences with their infectious energy\, beautiful harmonies\, atypical instrumentation. They make you smile\, laugh\, dance and create a tapestry of rhythms that transport audiences to another time. \nNow that’s an act that preserves some meaning to the word ‘genre’. – ThreeChordsandtheTruth \nSupport TBC \nDoors 7pm\, music 7:15pm
