- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 29 Mar, 2026 at 01:45 pm – Sun, 29 Mar, 2026 at 03:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Old Spot (Rowan Piggott & Joe Danks) burst onto the scene in 2023 with a critically acclaimed debut album and a whirlwind UK tour, quickly establishing themselves as a fresh force in old-time music. Praised for their raw energy and expressive musicianship, the duo lit up stages across UK/EU folk, bluegrass, and old-time festivals.

Joe and Rowan will be sharing the joy of old-time music, teaching appalachian tunes and some of the idiomatic playing styles that make them come to life. Learn about the history of this musical melting pot whilst picking up a tune or two along the way. 

- all instruments welcome, may be a bit string specific but hopefully interesting to everyone. 
- no previous old-time music experience required
- teaching by ear, sheet music available afterwards!
