A HOST of folk rock luminaries will perform at the Feast of Fiddles event in Huddersfield.

The Feast of Fiddles annual tour will stop at the Lawrence Batley Theatre on April 7.

The six-strong fiddle line-up reads like a who’s who from the folk rock scene, including Chris Leslie of Fairport Convention, Peter Knight of Steeleye Span, Brian McNeill and Phil Beer.

They link up with a five-man rock band – including drumming legend Dave Mattacks – for the tour.

The show starts at 8pm. Tickets cost £14 or £12 for concessions.

Normal weekend opening will apply on Easter Saturday, from 10am to 4pm, but the gallery will be closed on Easter Sunday.
