Rogues' March: Barrawolo/Kemta/Kwela/Jig

 

Boka Halat’s village hall shows consist of one concert set and one ceilidh set, involving participation from the audience in both.

Since 2003 the band has toured in 14 different counties and will in 2008-09 make its fourth tour of one West Midlands circuit.

 

Everyone went away really happy and many said it was perhaps the best musical show we had put on’

DANCE TO IT!

Boka Halat’s music sets all but the most churlish foot a-tapping and concert sets always encourage spontaneous dancing.

 

The band can also play for ceilidhs/barn dances, with Roger Watson calling, to give a new slant on an old tradition. The World grooves kick in as soon as the caller starts helping you find your way through the dance moves and the mix makes you strut the old figures in a way they don’t usually get strutted!
