Spare Parts play arrangements of British dance music on concertinas and fiddle. We also sing in harmony and with the concertinas.

We help to run the Lewes Saturday Folk Club, which meets every Saturday night at the Elephant & Castle, White Hill, Lewes, East Sussex BN7 2DJ and also puts on the nationally-known Lewes Saturday Folk Club Workshops for folk musicians and singers. Bryan runs the monthly session Concertinas Anonymous there.

Also at the Elephant & Castle, Bryan and Valmai run the monthly Lewes Favourites for people wanting to learn tunes popular in local English tunes sessions and helped to compile the Lewes Favourites tune books which resulted from the practice evenings.

Suzanne is a professional singer and teacher living in Banbury, performing regularly in churches and for the charity Music In Hospitals. She also plays guitar and keyboards.
