THE HOUGHTON WEAVERS, The Northwest’s Premiere Comedy / Folk Group, have been entertaining folk for over 50 years! with their unique blend of popular folk music, humour and audience participation. With countless Television and Radio appearances under their belt, they continue to tour across a wide selection of theatres and venues. Having recently performed as a headline Act at The Great British Folk Festival, their single “Wild Mountain Thyme” appeared in the Heritage Charts Top 40 and is due to appear in an upcoming film, ‘Between Weathers’. The band has recorded over 30 albums at iconic studios including Abbey Road and Frog Studios, 23 of which were arranged and produced by Steve Millington. THE HOUGHTON WEAVERS promise plenty of laughter with their infectious humour and funny stories galore. You’ll hear the old Weavers favourites such as Blackpool Belle, Sit Thi Deawn, Matchstalk Men and Dirty Old Town, together with new pieces, original songs and poems. From raucous energetic folk songs and sing-a-long classics to beautiful poignant ballads, and audience requests thrown in, each and every show with The Houghton Weavers is a little different! Jim Berry and Steve Mill...
