Fiddler Knight can ‘spin the world on his bow’

Friends of Folk brings a world- class artist to New Longton Village Hall on Friday in the shape of Steeleye Span legend Peter Knight.

Widely regarded as one of Britain’s finest fiddle players, Peter’s Gigspanner trio is gaining tremendous critical acclaim. Peter is a firm favourite of Disc World author Terry Pratchett, who said: “Peter Knight can spin the world on his bow.”

Friends of Folk organiser Jim Minall said: “It is always a pleasure to bring great musical talent to the area, and it gets no better than Peter Knight. This will be an evening of music that is simply as good as it gets.”
