Ian, Ted Handley , Krista Bubble have been, in their many guises,mainstays on the South East Folk club and Barn Dance, circuit for over 30 years , together they bring more years of experience than they care to think about in performing for ; folk clubs, festivals, barn dances, celidhs and private functions. In recent years they have specialised in barn dances with a little rock and roll thrown in!!. This has proved immensely popular at private parties where the musical variety caters for all tastes.
You don’t need to have attended a barn dance before to have a go, and no you dont need to dress up. Ian and the band have played hundreds of gigs for people who have never been to a barn dance and they always have a great time – try something different from the disco at your next party – have some fun!!
Ian’s solo performance pedigree goes back to the early 70’s and he has had stints with the Skinners Rats folk band and played the farthest reaches of the UK , with regular forays to Belgium, France and Spain. Ian is also available as a solo performer, as a duo wit Ted Handley or the full three piece depending on the engagement. Book now for late 2025 or call Ian for a chat (about gigs obviously!!)
Call Ian on 01634 221862 to talk about booking the band (or duo, or trio or solo!!!)
