Tales in the Long Night

- a weavening of sound and song...

 

Step into a world where stories come alive!

On December 12th, St James's Church in Teignmouth will transform into a magical space where the unseasonal meets the seasonal, as we gather to share in rich traditions through the universal language of song.

Featuring the mesmerizing and talented Swedish-Peruvian artiste Ulrika-Igraine, along with the expressive and conceptual duo Folk Here Tonight, this event will weave light and shade, delight and despair, and explore the delicate balance between myth and undeniable truths.

Prepare to be moved by a lineup of fabulous musicians, each bringing their own unique flair to this enchanting evening. Whether you're a folk devotee or simply curious, come and immerse yourself in a celebration of the seen and the unseen.

Joining the performance will be hurdy-gurdy maestro Steve Tyler, multi-instrumentalist Jon Dyer, fabulous fiddler Alex Lord, and fine vocalist Robin C-M.

Refreshments will be available with proceeds going to St. James' Church.

Get your tickets now – let the stories unfold! 

 

Tickets are available at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/ulrikaigraine/ or by going to the Folk Preservation Society at 28 Fore Street, Teignmouth
