Bill Whaley and Dave Fletcher
Mostly Reeds, Mostly Choruses, Mostly Traditional-ish
Well known throughout their native county, Lincolnshire, both for their club
work as a duo and as members of the Higgledy Piggledy band, Bill and Dave present a fine blend of voices mellowed by nearly thirty years of singing together.
Their selection of songs encompasses both ancient and modern accompanied in
traditional style on English and duet concertina, harmonium, and melodeon, with
enough choruses to satisfy any audience.
The pleasure they get from singing is obvious and since the release of their debut album "…Their Fine Array" they have taken their music further afield in
clubs from Cornwall to Lancashire and the North East and festivals countrywide.
They have been involved with Martyn Wyndham-Read's
"Songlinks", appearing on the CDs and at the premiere concerts at Sidmouth
festival and the CD launch concerts at Cecil Sharp House.
Their fourth album "Fit For Reclining" received enthusiastic reviews and album number five "Acorn to Oak" is now available (see Discography)
