    OUR RESIDENTS

    Lymm Folk Club is blessed with a fine complement of 'Residents' - these are the performers who provide tireless support throughout the year for our guests!

    They are:

    Stewart Lever: Stewart is the club organiser, who sings and plays guitar. His material ranges from traditional, covers and self-penned.

    Don and Heather: Don and Heather Davies ran the club prior to Stewart taking over. They both sing to Don's guitar and Heather's assortment of shaky things! Their material ranges from traditional, covers and self-penned, too.

    Nelson Peach: the club's own super-group! They are Lesley & Rick Nelson and Richard Peach, whose material ranges from traditional, covers and the occasional self-penned song, along with a few tunes for good measure! Lesley plays flute, whistle, guitar and triangle, Rick plays guitar, cittern and mandolin, and Richard plays fiddle, mandolin, guitar and banjo - and they all sing!

    Nick and Lin: Nick Tysoe plays guitar and banjo, and Lin plays autoharp, mandolin and guitar, and they both sing. Their material is predominantly American traditional,

    Bernard Cromarty: There aren't many instruments Bernard doesn't play... and he sings, too. His material ranges from traditional, contemporary, Music Hall and just plain daft!

    Bob and Kate: Although Bob and Kate aren't performers, their support is just as important - if not more so! Bob collects the door money, and Kate sells the raffle tickets! Without them, the club wouldn't function!
