The North East Mandolin Band
The North East Mandolin Band now has 22 members but they need more. They could do with an experienced mandolin or mandola player or two.
Based around Newcastle upon Tyne they have a fortnightly private rehearsal in Cramlington with the odd public performance but hope to do more.
