An amazing evening of wonderful wacky old time musical fun is promised at Burnetts Hill Chapel, Martletwy, later this month when the Corn Potato String Band play.

The Corn Potato String Band earns high praise in traditional American music, keeping old time fiddle and banjo music from a one-way trip to the dustbins of history.

They have delighted audiences with their driving fiddle tunes and harmonious singing across the US, Canada, Europe, Mexico, and India.

The band are all multi-instrumentalists dedicated to continuing the music and dance traditions of the Central and Southern US.

In addition to being champion fiddlers they play banjo, guitar, bass and mandolin and deftly handle many different antiquated styles including ballads, ‘ho-downs’, country ‘rags’ and southern gospel, specializing in twin fiddling and double banjo tunes.

The concert organised by the Pembrokeshire Eclectic Music Society, is on Tuesday, August 21, will start at 7.30 pm (doors open at 7 pm).

Tickets are £10 and are available by calling in to Main Street Music, Pembroke.
