Sam Sweeney’s Fiddle: Made In The Great War Wed 9 September 7.30pm • Theatre Six years ago, Sam Sweeney, Bellowhead’s fiddle player, bought a violin.

The pieces of the fiddle lay in a manila envelope for over 90 years until they made their way into the hands of luthier Roger Claridge and then Sam Sweeney. To mark the ongoing 100th anniversary of World War I, Sam has collaborated with story-teller Hugh Lupton, fellow Bellowhead band mate Paul Sartin and concertina player Rob Harbron to create a music/spoken word/film performance based on this story, featuring the actual fiddle made by Richard Howard.
