About The City Waites
The City Waites is an English early-music ensemble, playing popular music and ballads from the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They have been working since the early 70s, with a changing line-up built around founding members Lucie Skeaping, Roddy Skeaping and Doug Wootton. Their style is exuberant, and they frequently showcase the bawdier end of the ballad spectrum in their programmes. The members are technically very accomplished instrumentalists, and the sound is authentic.
