The City Waites - early English popular music.

Lucie Skeaping soprano, violin, rebec; Roddy Skeaping voice, violin, rebec, bass viol; Nick Perry recorders, curtal, bagpipes, hurdy-gurdy; Douglas Wootton lute, cittern

With a riot of period instruments, lusty voices and the exuberance of a 17th century street band, The City Waites perform popular songs, broadside ballads, bawdy catches, partsongs and dance music from the taverns, fairs, streets and theatres.
