This will be a very special night!Fairport Convention’s Ric Sanders is one of England's most versatile fiddle players, whilst guitarist and vocalist Vo Fletcher has composed, performed and recorded a wide variety of musical styles with artistes as diverse as Nigel Kennedy, Rik Mayall &amp; Fairport Convention.Ric has also worked in a diverse range of musical genres. He played experimental rock with Stomu Yamash'ta and the Red Buddha Theatre and Soft Machine. His interests in British folk music were strengthened during a stint with Ashley Hutching's Albion Band, a group that also included several musicians who had played with Fairport Convention. Ric joined the Fairport line-up in 1985 and 35 years later he remains an integral part of Fairport’s evolving sound.Vo has played with many great names on the scene, including Dave Swarbrick, Rik Mayall, Nigel Kennedy, The Applejacks and many more...Over the years Vo has played to literally thousands of children and parents all over the country. He’s written themes, songs and background music for Children’s TV programmes and is also well known for his educational work with Surestart Programmes and schools. He used to be a Children’s presenter on Channel 5 but he’s ok now;)Ric’s association with Vo Fletcher goes back to their days as teenagers. It was inevitable that these pals would play together, and over the last decade they’ve been involved in many projects, from recording Miles Davis classics live in Lincoln Cathedral to improvising an album with the inspirational Anjali Dance Company.Over the last ten years or so, they’ve taken a different direction, reconnecting with the music closest to their hearts. It’s a mixture of music rooted in the blues and their own inimitable versions of 60’s classics by the Beatles, Stones and Bob Dylan.
