Xogara / The Owl Light Trio

About

​A welcoem return to Crediton Arts Centre for Xogara. Hailing from Oxford via Galicia, Wales, and the West Country, Xogara are everything you might expect of an Anglo-Cymraeg-Galego four-piece. These acoustic multi-instrumentalists play with verve and gusto to complement the subtlety to be found in their arrangements of traditional and contemporary music from all over the British Isles and beyond.
The Owl Light Trio take good tunes to pieces and put them back together again. Jane uses a fiddle or a viola when handling tunes. This technique appears to be particularly effective and Jane is sought after as a performer, teacher, music editor and session musician. She performs and records with Duotone and the Two Piece Orchestra. She is an expert in the correct use of the semi-colon.Colin has many years experience dismantling and reassembling objects. This makes him eminently qualified to play acoustic guitar in the Owl Light Trio. Aficionados of experimental culinary sound art will know him from the Sonic Catering Band. Jim once grew a giant pumpkin weighing 12 st. He lives on the Street of Concertinas, under the Sign of the Hexagon.
