FULL 2023-2024 PROGRAMME HERE

ROSEWOOD

The three members of Rosewood, Simon, Val and Phil, have have been performing folk and acoustic music for some years and have played at major UK folk festivals as well as on the club and arts centre circuits. They also play French / Breton music in  BOF! 
The trio is based in East Anglia, Hadleigh and Colchester and most of their bookings have been in the south and east of the country. Rosewood sing and play traditional and contemporary songs and instrumentals, some of which they have written themselves. Their unique features are the variety of their source material and the range of  instruments they play. Depending on venues these may include diatonic accordions, bandoneon, bagpipes, bouzouki, concertina, deskbells and guitars.
There’s much more information and songs to listen to on their website HERE.
