Come down to The Isis River Farmhouse for a magical evening of folk music from two fantastic bands. Starting off the evening is local duo Half Pipe; well known on the local session scene, Jack and Callum mix bagpipes and guitar for a set of reels and jigs played at breakneck speed and yet with no lack of finesse! Headlining is 4-piece clarinet supergroup, The Tradinettes. With four prominent clarinettists on the UK folk scene, the band puts the clarinet front and centre in their unique arrangements of traditional folk tunes.
Nestled along the tranquil Isis River is Oxford's hidden gem, The Isis River Farmhouse. The riverside pub is Oxford's cherished independent haven, blending historical charm, delectable cuisine, and soul-stirring music; with an inviting ambiance, the welcoming glow of open fires during the winter months, a selection of locally crafted beers and ales, and unspoiled views.
About The Tradinettes:

About HalfPipe:
HalfPipe are Callum (pipes/whistles) and Jack (guitar, whistle). We're two Oxford based musicians and friends, who met through the Oxford folk scene and bonded over our mutual love of pipes, playing things a bit too fast, and enjoying good tunes wherever they come from. We primarily entwine music from Scotland, Ireland and our brains (wherever they're from at this point), and grin a lot at the audience in the process!
