Well would you look at that, the reviews have racked up this season. We’re loving this little snippet in the Sidmouth Herald following our performance at Sidmouth Folk Festival in the summer.
And then there was the distinctive and slightly scary Beltane Border Morris from Dartmoor, festival favourites for their wild, dark take on a dance style originating in the Welsh Borders, where dancers of the past wore tatters and blackened their faces to avoid being arrested for begging. Roaring, charging, clashing sticks, their performance was simply unforgettable.
