Those canny northern musicians Billy Mitchell, Bob Fox and Jez Lowe- Jack The Lad, Lindisfarne, Home Service & Bad Pennies amongst their collective achievements – are once more uniting under the banner of The Pit Men Poets for an early summer jaunt called ‘Burnin’ Bright.’ A new CD is due to coincide with the dates. The Pitmen Poets celebrate the Mining Heritage of their area in music and rhyme as well as with a dash of humour and a great deal of pride. Dates and details below.
