Geckoes + Sheena Masson

Friday 14 Apr 2023   7:15pm-10:00pm
St Barnabas Church
St Barnabas St, Oxford OX2 6BG, UK
Real-life
£14 / £9 / £3

Part of Folk Weekend Oxford 2023

Geckoes is a longstanding Oxfordshire favourite ceilidh band. They formed in the 1990s, coming out of the busy session scene in Eynsham, and it's great to have them appearing at FWO for the first time! They have a limitless supply of great tunes, and know how to phrase the music so that the dancing flows beautifully. The band is Andy Turner on anglo concertina, Caroline Butler on fiddle, Matt Quinn on melodeons, Andy Cheyne on bass guitar, acoustic guitar, fiddle and mandolin, and Tom Miller on keyboards, mandola and electric guitar.

Our caller this evening is the ever wonderful Sheena Masson. She chooses really good dances, and has a great way of explaining them.

Non-gendered calls will be used.
