Jigfoot is bursting with vitality, playing tunes with swooping melodies and a swing that will keep you dancing all night! The Southampton-based band specialises in playing traditional tunes from Hampshire and the surrounding area. The line-up features Ben Potton - fiddle, Gill Redmond - cello, Kim Sheil - melodeon and Cath Watkins - fiddle.

“Southampton-based purveyors of English dance music strut their stuff with exuberant bounce, swing and syncopation” fRoots

This evening’s caller is Mike Courthold whose vast repertoire of dances and easy-going manner makes him a favourite with very many dancers.

Simon and Jo Harmer have worked with Jigfoot to develop their excellent performances of southern step dancing, and we are lucky to be entertained by them at half-time this evening.
