Folk in the Foyer: Mike and Rachel Fenton
Mike and Rachel Fenton are a husband and wife team based in Bodenham who present an eclectic folk-based concert with autoharps and dulcimers. They bring a few extra of these instruments for people to try and a novel'hands-on' feature of the concert is the opportunity for enthusiastic members of the audience to take part in the programme in the second half. Mike is a former headteacher and autoharp professional who has played the instrument for over fifty years and who was elected to the American Autoharp Hall of Fame in 1997. Rachel is a ceramic artist and illustrator who is devoted to the mountain dulcimer. Together they play a blend of traditional tunes, waltzes, Irish airs, 50s pops, ex-No.1 hits, original compositions, old time country, blues and old favourites with plenty of songs for audience participation.
