THE BARN DANCE IS BACK!

THE BARN DANCE IS BACK!
Our second Barn Dance of the year is coming to Drop the Anchor Brewery this September, and after the brilliant fun we had last time, we cannot wait to do it all over again!
Leading the dancing once again are the fantastic Murphy’s Lore Ceilidh Band. You know what that means: foot-stomping tunes, plenty of laughter, great food, flowing beer and a barn full of people having an incredible time.
Murphy’s Lore hail from Bournemouth and Dorset and bring a high-energy mix of traditional Irish, English and Scottish folk music, alongside their own original tunes.
This time they’ll also be joined by their new box player Andrew, making his DTA debut! We’re looking forward to welcoming him into the Drop the Anchor family.
And don’t worry if you haven’t got a clue what you’re doing! That’s half the fun. The band will guide you through the dances, so grab a partner, grab your friends, and prepare for organised chaos on the dance floor.
Whether you’re a seasoned ceilidh dancer or have two left feet, everyone is welcome.
