New Corona Band
About us
The New Corona Band has been bringing barn dancing fun to the Midlands since 2005. We can make your barn dance go with a swing!
Thanks again so much for the band's amazing gig.... Everyone totally loved you. We managed to raise £400 on the night, not including ticket sales.

Charity Dance/Acorns Trust
We are a band playing traditional English (and some foreign) music for barn dances and ceilidhs. We consist of Pennie on melodeon, Clif on Appalachian dulcimer, and Steph on guitar.
We have played at a wide range of events; birthday parties from 18th to 70th, retirement parties, corporate functions, wedding receptions, and civil partnership celebrations.
We are available to play in the Midlands, and possibly further afield, so if you're in the East Midlands or West Midlands, the Black Country, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Nottingham, Derby - well, anywhere, get in touch and see what we can do for you - all sorts of events catered for, birthdays, parties, weddings, company events, we can do it.
Thank you so very much for providing an absolute stonker of a party on Saturday! People can't stop talking about the dancing - especially people who have never Barn Danced before!

Wedding
The New Corona Band was named for the father of Clif Barfield, our Appalachian
dulcimers and blow downs player, who played rhythm instruments for the
Corona Band in the thirties and forties.
