Friday 8th February Pin Drop Band £8 8 pm Ring of Bells, Nailsea - nailseafolkclub@hotmail.co.uk tickets on the night or from Nailsea music shop - 01275 855021 “Pindrop is that quintessential moment at the end of a really wonderful piece of music when the audience is so mesmerized it forgets to clap”. The line-up is drawn from a collective of players who share the same enthusiasm for acoustic rather than electrified music. The emphasis in on delicate arrangements and harmonies and purity of sound. Much of their material is self-penned and the instruments range from guitar, ukulele, banjo, whistles, Mbira, fiddle accordion, double bass and percussion. Photos and more: www.pindrop.co.uk |
