Folkworks Summer School 

I'm delighted to be teaching on this year's Folkworks Summer School in Durham.  Going on this course as a teenager was a huge experience for me and led directly and indirectly to the musical path I've followed ever since.  I believe that when I first taught on the course I was the youngest tutor ever to teach on it and  I've taught on it many times since.  I'm delighted to be heading back there this year to be part of a great team of tutors led by the wonderful Grace Smith.

 

There are summer schools for youth and juniors and also the Folkworks Summer Sessions for adults so do visit The Glasshouse website for more details.  https://theglasshouseicm.org/seasons/folkworks/

New tunebook! 

 

I'm very excited to announce the Lost Measures tunebook, in which Sam Sweeney and I discuss ways in which we've got tunes from manuscript sources off the page and into our repertoire. 61 tunes in total including all the tunes from Leveret's latest album Lost Measures, plus 40 more great tunes from the archives.  We show original manuscript images / transcriptions for each tune as well as our adaptation and notes on how we've got from one to the other.  A must for all tune players!

Order your copy now from the Leveret website.
 

 

 

 

 

Leveret Tour 

To mark the launch of our new album Lost Measures, Leveret will be on the road in September and October, starting at Ruskin Mill on September 26th.  Full ticket links on the Leveret website - hope to see you at a gig, and please buy your tickets in advance if possible!

 

 

The gig in Lewes on September 27th is now fully booked, but we'll be running all-day instrumental workshops on fiddle, melodeon and English concertina.  Workshops are £45 per person and you can reserve workshop places by sending an email to the organiser.

New Leveret album! 

Leveret are delighted to announce our new album Lost Measures - which as the name suggests features a number of tunes that we've unearthed from manuscripts and tunebooks, along with a few new original tunes.  We recorded it in a beautiful small chapel outside Stroud back in March and we're delighted to be sending them out ahead of our tour in a couple of weeks.

Order now from the Leveret website on CD or MP3 download, or from Bandcamp for digital downloads in your choice of format and streaming with the Bandcamp app.  This one isn't currently available on other streaming platforms and we have no immediate plans to make it available there so please buy direct and give it a listen!

Leveret tours 

Leveret are really lookingh forward to our May tour in the UK, where we'll have some new tunes to play you.  All gigs now on sale - ticket links at Leveretband.com.  Please buy your tickets early if you can!
