21st Century Hoe Down – Brighton Freerange

Sunday May 9, 2010toMonday May 10, 2010

Sorry for the short notice on this – we’ve only just got these details through

Sunday 9th May 2010, Freerange, St Peter’s Church Gardens, London Road, BN1 4GU (Venue info) Doors open 8pm

21st Century Hoe Down + The Magpie’s Nest end of Tour Party.

The two worlds of modern Folk Music and 21st Century Folk Dance collide at this event at the Brighton Fringe Festival. Hosted by BBC Radio 2 Folk award winning club The Magpie’s Nest and festival hoe down favourites Cut A Shine Barn Dance.

The Magpie’s Nest host the start of the evening for the last night party of their Arts Council funded UK tour, showcasing two top underground Folk Acts – The Long Notes and Plaster of Paris.

Festival favourites Cut A Shine Barn Dance host the second part of the evening, with a raucous and wild Barn Dance. Joining the fray are local bluegrass and stonking old time band Chicken Shed Zeppelin, here playing with mandolin virtuoso Hippy Joe Hymas. Headlining are Punk-Folk legends The Tofu Love Frogs.

The Bands:

The Long Notes, play updated and contemporary Celtic Music with Accordion, Tenor Banjo, Fiddle and Guitar – exceptionally beautiful and dance-able music having set ablaze many a dance floor from Glastonbury to Lovebox Festivals.
“*****” The Scotsman
“unmissable, a treat” The Guardian

Plaster of Paris deliver syncopated songs of love, lust and loss. Be charmed by mesmerising vocals, thrilled by raucous rhythms and surprised by a bizarre and brilliant self-styled Kazoomaphone.

Cut A Shine are a London based troupe of traditional musicians, dynamic dancers and crazy callers determined to spread the word that the Hoe Down is a’happening. From Hoxton to Humberside, from Amnesty to Bestival, Cut A Shine are putting ceilidh back on the map – whether at sell out dances in London or the top summer festivals. This “Anarchic Hillbilly Barn Dancing Squad” host a rip-roaring, thigh-slapping, pavement-stomping, exhilarating, heart thumping, blood pumping barn dance. Whilst the banjo and the fiddle set the tone, the callers instruct any audience through do-si-do’s and strip the willows, until all are involved!

Www.cutashine.co.uk
Chicken Shed Zeppelin play old-time fiddle-thrashing, yeeharhollerin’ breakneck speed acoustic dance music with attitude to get ya on ya feet in a hurry and shakin’ your old-time booty with a VENGEANCE!…..”A three-piece force of nature, attacking original material and standards alike…wielding their instruments as if their lives depended on it. Think Mountain Firework Co. meets the Curst Sons.
