Celebrating their 30th anniversary in partnership this year, Nancy Kerr and James Fagan are one of the most beloved and enduring acts in British folk. Twice Winners of Best Duo at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, they combine stunning vocals and stellar instrumentation on fiddle, guitar and bouzouki with Nancy's insightful and poetic lyrics. The couple have brought joy, inspiration and some memorably energetic arrangements to global audiences since their chance meeting in 1995.
From traditional ballads and fiery Northumbrian fiddle tunes, this set will cover the great dynamic and thematic range for which Nancy and James are so admired.
Hepworth Village Hall stands as a vital nexus within its namesake community, a testament to enduring local spirit and collective endeavour. Operated by the Hepworth Community Association, this venue consistently serves as a focal point for village life, underpinning a diverse calendar of events that enrich the cultural fabric of the area. Its status as a community asset ensures that every gathering contributes to the broader well-being of Hepworth.
Within its walls, the hall retains the quiet dignity of its Victorian school origins, with original architectural details hinting at a rich past. The warmth from the gas-fired central heating offers a welcoming embrace on cooler evenings, while the polished surfaces reflect the ambient light, creating an atmosphere conducive to both lively performance and thoughtful discussion. It is a space that feels lived-in, yet carefully maintained.
Practically appointed, the hall includes an equipped kitchen with a serving hatch, and a bar can be arranged for various functions. Double doors from the main space lead out to a small covered veranda, overlooking a generous playing field, where benches invite quiet contemplation. Parking is available on-site, and the venue offers accessible toilet facilities, ensuring comfort for all patrons.
Throughout the year, the hall hosts a varied programme, from regular film screenings and engaging theatre productions to intimate folk and acoustic music concerts. It also provides a consistent home for local groups, including art and craft sessions, badminton clubs, and pre-school activities, alongside charity coffee mornings and popular quiz nights, reflecting its broad appeal and utility.
