Barnbuskers musicians love a good traditional get together with family and friends. We love playing traditional folk music and we love dancing. Sometimes we get together to play the jigs and reels at home, sometimes we go out to a friendly pub and join in with other folk musicians playing a regular or weekly traditional music session. At other times, we love to help create those special memories by providing the Barnbuskers ceilidh and country barn dance music for birthdays or weddings. We even sometimes pop down to our local sea front in Minehead just for fun and play a few traditional folk music tunes just to entertain passers by. Whether it’s English, Irish, Eastern European or whatever traditional music, we love it all.
Christmas is always a time when families and friends traditionally get together and each family has it’s own traditions. We always look forward to Judy’s multi-instrumentalist children Laura and Ryan, now young adults, coming back for Christmas because it means music then more music then even more music. At Christmas, it’s also a great opportunity for them to join in playing at Barnbuskers ceilidh country barn dances we have booked, especially if it can be timed with a visit by Rob, Judy’s talented violinist brother seen in the photo below.
So we wish all our friends out there a very merry traditional family Christmas and hope it will be a traditionally musical one too. As always, if you would like some traditional folk dance music for your Somerset or Devon celebration at Christmas or otherwise, visit Barnbuskers ceilidh and country barn dance band contact page. We look forward to hearing from you!
