Brian Peters is a performer of traditional English folk music who combines a high level of skill on three different instruments with a great voice and an energetic stage presence. He's one of the UK’s best Anglo-concertina players, just as good on melodeon (button accordion), and a fine guitarist well-versed in open tunings.

Brian is also recognized internationally as a leading singer of traditional ballads. Described as "One of British folk music's finest ambassadors", he started out in the folk clubs of England and has taken his performances to stages all over the world, touring regularly in Europe and America, and always retaining a deep commitment to the musical traditions of his native country. 

On Sunday morning he will be performing 'Songs of Trial & Triumph' in the Workhouse Committee Room: A solo performance of some of the greatest of the ‘Child Ballads’, the crown jewels of British traditional song, collected in the 19th Century by Harvard Prof F.J. Child. These ancient ballads of Death Destruction and Devilry will be brought vividly to life in an entertaining presentation.
