Unicorn Ceilidh with The Pigeon Swing and Jane Bird

The Unicorn Ceilidh at St Mary’s Church Hall, Baldock on Friday 9th May features The Pigeon Swing with caller Jane Bird.

The Pigeon Swing plays lively traditional Québécois dance tunes with an English style to get your feet really tapping! All the band members have been involved in many influential English dance bands, including The Old Swan Band, Flowers & Frolics, The Oyster Band, Gas Mark V and Tiger Moth.

Jane is an enthusiastic caller and dancer who will make sure everyone has a really good time dancing to the music with her wide repertoire of great ceilidh dances.

Interval entertainment will be from Bedfordshire-based Golden Hare Morris, whose dances come from the local traditions of Ampthill and Scouthall.

Held at St Mary’s Church Hall, Church Street, Baldock, the evening starts at 8:00 p.m. (doors open at 7:30), and finishes at 11.00 p.m. Adults - £13, Seniors over 65 - £12, Children under 18 - £7, Students / unwaged - £10. First 6 students before 8 p.m. - FREE! Excellent value for a live band and caller! There’s a real ale, cider, wine and soft drinks bar and a raffle at the half-time break; parking is easy in the town centre, just walk to the church and you’ll find the hall in the church grounds.

All the dances are walked through beforehand, and the emphasis is very much on enjoying yourself, rather than getting everything step perfect. See www.unicornceilidhs.org.uk for full details and advance ticket sales.
