St.Monday are three musicians with wide-ranging backgrounds, who all love playing traditional music for dancing.Gary Bennett (bass) has worked in most styles of music, with many well-known performers, and his new album will be released soon. He also plays the melodeon for morris dancing.
Alan Staines (guitar, bouzouki, mandolin, banjo) creates his own instruments, and he's the one who decides on the band's harmonies.Celia Kemp (melodeon) has a lifetime's experience of ceilidh dancing, and she finds the lively tunes that St. Monday play!What’s St. Monday? Well… once upon a time when a chap had to work six days a week, he might just overdo his fun on a Sunday, and when he couldn’t get up the next morning he’d tell his boss he was athome to celebrate the Feast of St. Monday.
