About Us

 

 

Sally Pickering

 

Sally is the driving force behind the band with her strong fiddle playing. She is especially keen on English and Playford tunes.

 

Sally also plays in a fiddle and guitar duo with Roy, providing background music for various functions or as part of a Ceilidh evening
Jennie Johnson

Jennie plays acoustic guitar, acoustic bass and whistle. Jennie became interested in Blues and folk music many years ago through classes run by the great yorkshire blues player Roger Sutcliffe

Malcolm Pickering

 

Better known locally as a keen runner and sports coach, Malcolm also calls for Ceilidh dancing. Malcolm's teaching background is reflected in the way he leads dancers through the steps, supported by a great sense of humour

Roy Johnson

 

Roy's interest in music started by playing classical guitar and his training is put to good effect when playing duets with Sally.

 

In the Ceilidh context Roy provides driving rhythms and interesting chordal accompaniments. 

 

Roy also plays Tenor Banjo which sounds great for Irish Jigs and American square dances.

Roy has previously played with Sally in Buttered Peas and Impromptu Ceilidh bands
