Hoo ha! Hoo hoo ha! Travelling folksters Harry Bird and the Rubber Wellies will be presenting their intimate cabaret of joyful sing-a-long choruses and general participatory fun at Riba Rocks 2013. Pirates, lizards, cracks in the wall and Basque cyclists all inhabit the songscape. And a beard snood….
