Northamptonshire band 3Sticks will perform at the next Unicorn Ceilidh in Baldock this month.

The event will be held at St Mary's Church Hall on Friday, October 11 from 8pm to 11pm, with doors open from 7.30pm.

Three-piece band 3Sticks - who are favourites on the UK ceilidh and festival circuit - will play a wide range of music from the British Isles and Europe.

The band features Jenny Newman on fiddle, Andy Glass on guitar and base pedals and Pete Hemsley on percussion.

Dances will be called by Unicorn Ceilidh favourite Sheena Masson, who is known for her "legendary" knowledge of folk dances.

New Hitchin-based Morris dance group Hicca Hoodlums will perform during the interval, dancing a contemporary take on traditional Border Morris, with plenty of stick-clashing and high-energy dancing.

Tickets are available online at www.unicornceilidhs.org.uk, and cost £13 for adults, with child and concession tickets also available.

There will be a real ale, cider, wine and soft drinks bar during the half-time break, as well as a raffle.

All the dances are walked through beforehand, and the emphasis is on enjoying yourself rather than getting every dance step perfect.

Attendees can park in the town centre and just walk to the church hall.
