Congratulations TFA! 10 years ago this evening was the first full meeting of Tyneside Fiddle Alliance led by Bottle Bank Band. Huge thanks to all who have been a part of this wonderful community group of fiddle players over the years - leaders, committee, helpers and members, and to all the staff at St Mary's Heritage Centre, our spiritual home. We're still going strong despite the lockdown and it's been lovely to welcome new members to our Zoom meetings.

Hello TFA friends! It's the first Thursday in January and we are back to TFA Zoom meetings this evening! Looking forward to seeing all your smiling faces on the screen and playing some tunes together 😄🎻 Zoom details have been sent out to the mailing list. If you'd like to join us - from wherever you are - do get in touch, we are always open to new members. It's free to attend (donations are warmly welcomed but not essential!) and the tunes with harmony and foundation lines are provided. It helps a little if you can read the dots, but we do go over things slowly and new tunes are taught as if by ear, with extra videos provided during lockdown! 😊 ... See MoreSee Less
