The main purpose of The Tern Valley Tinkers is to play traditional music for dancing by which we mean ceilidhs or barn dances typically at private parties, weddings and community events including theme nights, for example, St Patrick\u2019s and Burn\u2019s night. We can also provide music for a wide range of other events including farmers’ markets, street festivals, village fetes, agricultural shows and for groups and organisations. In addition to playing traditional tunes, we can lead community singing. The band perform regularly in Shropshire, Staffordshire and Cheshire, but travel nationally and have played events in Derbyshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Lancashire, Northamptonshire and Somerset.\u00a0We welcome enquiries both local and from further afield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
