Two of England’s most popular folk musicians are appearing in Lichfield.

Accordion and melodeon players Simon Care and Gareth Turner will be in concert at Holy Cross Hall, Chapel Lane, on March 19.

They have fronted many of the UK crowd favourites including Edward 11, Phil Beer Band, Albion  Band and The Lark Rise Band.

They perform as the only twin box duo in the country with a wealth of stories to accompany their musical talents.

Lichfield Arts Assistant Director Stuart Davies said:

“They are typical of the wealth of fine folk musicians in England, never standing still, always breathing new life and energy to their music.”

The concert on March 19 starts at 8pm and tickets can be booked on 01543-262223 or online at www.lichfieldarts.org.uk.
