Tinkers Bag are a group of friends that have played together since 1997, Since starting the group has written and played 6 full length shows and performed at many concerts and clubs.
They have performed “A Labourer's Year” “A Seasonal Feast”, “A Wiltshire Wedding”, “Through a Wiltshire Vale” and “A Drop of Nelsons Blood” , “Sing The Year Round” and are working on a new show of traditional material from their Home county of Wiltshire which will be called "Songs of Old Wiltshire"
Between them, the group plays a number of instruments including, Melodeons, Concertinas, bouzouki, Mandola, Mandolin, Guitar, Whistles, flute, Recorder, Appalachian Dulcimer, Drums and cymbals, kazoos, triangle, shaky egg and even a rusty old scythe. (though not all at the same time!!)
In early 2007 the group changed to their current line up.
Bob & Gill Berry, Nigel & Christine Owen, Mick Hiscock and Richard Rees will perform as Tinkers Bag. Previous members include Ron Harries and Karel Bechler.
