@ Llanhilleth Institute, Llanhilleth
Allan Yn Y Fan is delighted to be participating for the second year in the Big National Ceilidh and is looking forward to a great night in Llanhilleth Institute on Saturday 17th October(commencing at 7.30 p.m).
With the nation once again gripped by the Strictly Come Dancing series, here is the perfect excuse to vacate the sofa and experience the benefits and delights of dancing, whilst simultaneously providing life’s essential ingredient to those for whom clean drinking water is simply not a given.
For this very special event Allan Yn Y Fan will be performing in a slightly bigger than normal line-up with Ruth Appleby (saxes) and Darren Fellows (trumpet), joining Geoff Cripps (guitar/keyboards/bass/bouzouki) Meriel Field (fiddle) Chris Jones (accordion/flute) Linda Simmonds (mandolin, mandola, bodhran) and Kate Strudwick (flute/recorders). Chris Jones will be guiding everyone through all the dances in his own inimitable style!
The Big National Ceilidh is a nationwide event to raise money for WaterAid, a charity that helps some of the world’s poorest people gain access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene education. At 10pm, all the ceilidhs up and down the country will be united by dancing the Circassian Circle, to the tune of Jamie Allen.
Geoff Cripps of Allan Yn Y Fan said :- “ We know from gigging all around the UK what tremendous fun can be had at a Twmpath Dawns (Ceilidh). Now we can, in our own area, provide our friends and neighbours with a great Saturday night shindig - and raise money for life’s essential ingredient - water - at the same time! We do hope that Llanhilleth Institute will be bursting at the seams - book your tickets now!”
Allan Yn Y Fan, their guest musicians and their caller, are all donating their services in order to maximise the proceeds to WaterAid.
