Getting jiggy with folk star’s unique new show

A YOUNG folk star is lining up something a little different when she visits Barnard castle on bank holiday Monday, May 1.
Jig Doll is the new project by young folk star Hannah James of esteemed trio The Rheingans Sisters.
She blends digital layering, traditional folk music and clog dancing to offer a unique combination of the traditional and contemporary arts.
Singer, accordionist and clog dancer, Hannah has performed in numerous highly successful folk outfits during the last decade, including  working alongside renowned folk-fiddler Sam Sweeney who brought a sell-out concert to The Witham back in September 2015. 
Maddy Sutton, audience development officer at The Witham said: “With percussive dance at the heart of this show, the gig will be a really exciting and energetic experience.
“Hannah is bringing something that is genuinely new and interesting, and because she mixes so many different elements to the production, everybody can be confident that they will be blown away.”
Tickets are available at www.thewitham.org,uk or by phone on 01833 631107 (10am to 4pm, Tuesday to Saturday).
