Teilhard Frost & Jock Tyldesley: A brand new duo with the best of old time music!
Teilhard and Jock found a shared love of Appalachian fiddle tunes around a full table, licking plates and dancing in the kitchen. They're both tall, rather polite, love great food and play twin fiddles and occasional banjo, and who knows what else too.
Canadian musician and instrument maker, Teilhard (tay-YAR) Frost specialises in traditional folk music with a focus on Appalachian old time music. He has spent the last twenty years touring with the sensational rag-time outfit Sheesham, Lotus, and 'Son. Other work include The Os project with Jason Mercer (Ani diFranco, Ron Sexsmith), The Complete Recordings of Hezekiah Proctor with L'il Andy, Succeeder with Michael Duguay, Jenny Whiteley, Joey Wright, and miles of studio session work for over 50 albums and film. He currently lives on Wolfe Island in the St. Lawrence River, straddling the border of Canada and the United States. There he makes banjos, his supper and his bed.
Jock Tyldesley is perhaps best known for his fiddling in Cajun bands such as The Flatville Aces and the Bearcats, as well as more off-the-wall antics with The New Rope String Band and The Chipolatas.
Ollersett are a folk trio based in the Dark Peak, blending original sets with folk tunes from Celtic and Scandinavian traditions.
