Jez Lowe and the Bad Pennies - Defrosted

Tuesday 15 December 2026 | 7.30pm | Coquetdale Music Trust, Former URC Church, Thropton, NE65 7ND

Award-winning songwriter and BBC Radio 4 presenter Jez Lowe returns with his toe-tapping folk quartet The Bad Pennies for a night of good-humoured seasonal music and stories from North East England. This year's show, Defrosted, comes to Thropton in Coquetdale.

Expect an infectious mix of seasonal songs, old favourites, toe-tapping tunes and witty banter, with harmony vocals, guitars, fiddle, Northumbrian pipes, bass and piano: a whistle-stop tour of the music and traditions of Northumberland, Tyneside and County Durham.

With sold-out shows across the country every year, this group just goes from strength to strength, so book early. Tickets are £15.75 through Badapple Theatre. Explore more of Rothbury and Coquetdale, or see what's on for Christmas in Northumberland.
