Moonrakers at St Mary’s

The popular Celtic music group Moonrakers will be performing at St Mary’s Church on Saturday 20th November starting at 7:30pm.

Moonrakers is an Oxford-based group of four musicians who pride themselves in having brought traditional and contemporary folk music to new audiences in village halls, churches, arts centres and festivals across the UK.  The fact that the band “just oozes quality” (Living Tradition) is down to the careful arrangements and selection of tunes and songs, presenting “exquisite music” (BBC).  The material is a combination of traditional Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English music and their own contemporary songs and tunes, still very much ‘in the idiom’.

Some villagers may have seen them perform on Wittenham Clumps in 2019 where their music was highly acclaimed.

Tickets are £12 on the door or from 01865 407416.

The event is sponsored by The Friends of St Mary’s and all profit goes to help maintain the church.
