Dulwich Folk on 5th February : Ewan Macdonald and Alastair Caplin at the Castle , Crystal Palace Road


Recommended Posts

Ewan and Alastair are stalwarts of the Band of Burns supergroup. Hailing respectively from the Isle of Lewis and Strathpeffer in Scotland, Alastair Caplin (The Langan Band, Band of Burns) and Ewan Macdonald (Root & Branch, Band of Burns) take audiences on an evocative and varied journey through the music of Scotland.

Expect a mix of blisteringly fast tune sets with heart- wrenchingly beautiful laments on fiddles, guitar, mandolin and bouzouki. Gaelic song from the duo’s native Gàidhealtachd also feature heavily in the set, with poignant harmonium-accompanied Òrain Mòra (‘great songs’) interspersed with rapid tongue-twisting pùirt-a-beul (Gaelic mouth-music).


We also continue tonight with our tradition of inviting musicians from the local Scottish music group , which is led by Andy Clark from Shotley Crue, to join in the night to help make it a real celebration , not just of Burns but a lot of unforgettable music and song.


Doors open at 7 . Music from 7.30 ( Overture session from 7.20)

Entrance £12

    • Dishing the dirt is generally fine when it comes to politicians and in Farage's case he often deserves it but  nothing illegal  has been done. It is not illegal for him to give his partner a sizeable amount of money with which to buy a house and have it registered in her name. He is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger and so he most likely is making plans to minimise IHT. There is a sliding scale for IHT but basically a gift is free of IHT if the gift is made 7 years before the donor dies. Farage is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger. In 7 years time, if he lives that long, he will be 71 years old. Given that he smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish, his odds on getting beyond 71  years may be pretty slim.  A similar  process is followed by the "bank of mum and dad"  where parents  give money to their kids to fund purchase of a property. Many who are not cash rich will mortgage their home and so release equity to fund their kids property. We did it as have many of our friends.
