MORTIMER’SMORRIS
Mortimer’s Morris are a lively women’s side based in
Nottingham. We perform dances from the North West
tradition with enthusiasm and style. Our kit often receives
as much limelight as the dancing. Black skirts, ribbon and
appliqué corset style waistcoats and colourful underskirts
give a striking appearance.
Mortimer’s Band contribute a unique sound with hurdy
gurdy, diatonic accordion, guitar, fiddle, whistles,
bouzouki. Many of the tunes have a distinctive French
flavour, adding to the Mortimer’s experience. Wearing
black suits and shades, the band have developed into the
‘mortician chic’ it is today.
Along with our dancing and music sessions at festivals,
we are able to offer workshops in
• North West Morris
• French Music
• French Bal
• Hurdy Gurdy
• Ceilidh
