HACONBY HARE Traditional TUNE SESSIONS
These are cracking evenings of traditional music — mainly english polkas, jigs, reels, hornpipes and waltzes, played on acoustic-only instruments, typically fiddles, melodeons, guitars, flutes, bodhrans and even the odd hammered dulcimer.
Besides english tunes, you might hear a few irish, american, scots, swedish and french-canadian creep in from time to time. There's not usually any singing — that happens in the pub on different nights.
Where & When
The Tune Sessions happen in the Bar of the Hare & Hounds pub:
2 West Road, Haconby, Bourne, Lincolnshire, PE10 0UZ 📍 View on Google Maps
The pub is easy to find — in the village of Haconby, just 1/4 mile off the A15, 3 miles north of Bourne. If the car park is full, parking is available on the road. Free admission — come to enjoy a drink and listen to the Tune Session music.
We aim to start the music around 7:30pm and finish around 10:30pm.
The Landlords are very welcoming, with usually two hand-pulled beers and a range of others available.
