Members

Simbo Rumblebelly (Horn, drum, theorbo)
A hugely charismatic figure, the smooth-talking and smooth-playing Master Rumblebelly is a self-taught musician of no small skill. Favouring the horn or the drums, his playing can best be described as energetic and larger than life. Simbo is the recently appointed Band Master.

Rowana Fairborn (Harp, lute, clarinet)
With her roots in Songburrow stretching back several generations, Miss Fairborn is an amicable and knowledgeable figure. Well known for her concise but sometimes outlandish stories and accompanying song notes, she is one of the finest harp players in the Westfarthing.

Lothilia Featherfoot (Lute, flute, bagpipes)
Well-known to all patrons of the Green Dragon in Bywater as the resident lute-player and part-time storyteller, she brings to the band many years of experience as well as a passion for music making of all kinds.

Lina Willowwood (Lute, harp)
As modest as she is talented, Miss Willowwood was until recently unknown to the band. With a fondness for spontaneity and impromptu music making, her lute playing is at its best, both infectious and melodious.

Background

Who are the Songburrow Strollers?
The Songburrow Strollers are a small collective of hobbit musicians from the Grand Order of the Lost Mathom. They carry on the long held tradition of making music in the village of Songburrow in the Shire.

Notes
The Songburrow Strollers play fully in-character and can be considered a real group of part-time musicians in the Shire for RP purposes.

Can the band be hired for events?
We mostly play at our own gatherings or events in the Shire. It is also possible that we could play in Bree-land, but it would be unlikely if we would travel further afield, and only in exceptional circumstances. We don't ask for any money for our performances, but ask that you cover any travel costs and supply a generous amount of pies and ale (any further monies are completely at your discretion). For further information on this aspect of the band and to make an initial enquiry please leave a note in our Guest Book
