Award-winning country musicians The Haley Sisters perform in Derbyshire village
Their performance at Alstonefield Village Hall on Friday, August 20, celebrates their return to the venue after four years.
Concert organiser Martin Snodin said: “Musicians have had a difficult time and they are just glad to be out performing again. Audiences seem keen to return but we are still applying some restrictions, such as limiting capacity to 75% of normal levels and increased ventilation.”
