Booking Enquiries

Threadneedle can be engaged by calling Tim Brooks at home on 01923 264536, or mobile 07769 215502, or e-mail me at the address shown above.

As well as band and caller, we bring a professional PA system, so we can be heard clearly (but not too loud!), and if required, stage lighting to help set the mood.

Where can we be seen?

We are currently taking bookings for the Autumn of 2016, and for 2017 and beyond details of public events will be published here as they become known!
