JULY 2010

Fri Jul 2 1st-Friday Choruses to start a Singers' Night featuring ROISTER.

Steve Minett (Worcester) and Roger Tyler (Bromsgrove), formed a duo in 2007, founded on a friendship that goes back more than 20 years. Roger’s background is in English traditional song which he has sung since infancy and researched in adulthood to build a wide and varied repertoire around the songs of his home county of Wiltshire. He plays guitar and concertina. Born in the Black Country, Steve’s background is more widely grounded in classical music and jazz as well as folk. He also brings a long history of acclaimed solo singing to the partnership while leading the accompaniment with his subtle work on concertina. It is, however, the blend of voices that produces the synergy that their audiences enjoy most. Roger’s strong lead coupled with Steve’s well-thought harmonies produce a resonance that compels you to listen.
