Kiddars Luck will be at the Heritage Centre singing some canny songs and bonny tunes for our visitors in the Courtyard.

As volunteers at Beamish Open Air Museum they host the ‘Pit Village Music Hall’ a celebration of the North East in tunes, songs and dancing, entertaining children and adults alike with their unique brand of local folk music. They have played at numerous music festivals including the Durham Miner’s Gala, The Woodhorn Mining Museum, Tanfield Railway, The Tommy Armstrong Society, Gateshead Community Festivals, The White Room Music Café and here at the Land of Oak & Iron
“….The rather awesome & effervescent local folk trio ‘Kiddars Luck’ ….With an impressive musical background & setlist to choose from their set is full of northern folk & traditional music as well as many old folk standards to entertain us all. Their trademark three part harmony is something special & a joy to hear perform often unaccompanied” Graeme Richardson The White Room, music café, Stanley
