The ladies and gentlemen of the 'orchestra'...

Jackie Allen As co-founder Jackie is DanceAV's Musical Director and 'Biz Lady'. She has been responsible for setting up some of the UK's best loved ceilidh and concert bands including Token Women, The Kitchen Girls and Asha. An ex-competion English clog dancer herself she has a driving passion for dance, rhythm and her ever-growing collection of fiddles! Jackie promotes business tourism in her home area and also works as an arts administrator on a freelance basis.	Adam Bushell Adam Bushell is a percussionist of many colours. Outside of DanceAV he plays for the Tacet Ensemble and [rout], both specializing in contemporary classical music. Variety being the spice of life, Adam is now exploring the realms of jazz and funk, playing congas with Thumpasaurus Peoples, a classic funk 14 piece band, and vibraphone with Vogue Gyrator, a smaller free-form group. Basically, if it involves hitting things, and it doesn't pin him down, he'll try anything.
George Marsh Hailing from Milton Keynes, George is a versatile young singer with a repertoire spanning jazz, rock and G&S opera! She delivers with expression and passion and always has several projects on the go. During the daylight hours she can be found coordinating development of distance learning courses for the Open University.	Linda Game Linda is a jazzy fiddle player who also appears on keyboard for dAV. She's well known through her gloriously distinctive playing with the American-flavoured string-band The Kitchen Girls, folk-rock outfit The Fold, plus other projects. Linda is also music teacher at an International School in Brighton.
Carol Levi Carol is a guitar player with an apparently enyclopediac knowledge of chord progressions. As well as her contributions to DanceAV she adds her unique swing to The Kitchen Girls.
