Broom Bezzums


These two fantastically talented multi-instrumentalists and song-writers will be a real treat to listen to at the Sunday afternoon and evening concerts. With three albums under their belts, Andrew & Mark strike a balance between traditional music & their own material.

Broom Bezzums is a unique, powerful live acoustic duo comprising the talents and striking stage presence of Andrew Cadie and Mark Bloomer.

Two lead singers, two born entertainers, two top flight songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, bringing to the stage fiddle, guitars, mandola, Northumbrian pipes and bass drum, topped off with soaring vocal harmonies. With all hands, mouths and feet in action you’d be forgiven for thinking you’re hearing a 5 piece band!

Broom Bezzums strike a keen balance between authentic traditional music and the creative freedom of the current songwriter/Nu-Folk wave, which is winning over droves of younger fans for acoustic music.
