Singing Hinnies - A Taakin Heeds Geordie Heritage Project

Headliners members in the North East create their own Geordie song with help from The Futureheads' Barry Hyde and Field Music's Peter Brewis, as part of the Heritage Lottery Funded Taakin Heeds Project. They attended the British Library's Evolving English Launch in Newcastle City Library, where they spoke to local residents, artisits and musicians about Geordie culture; including Simon Donald, Johnny Handle and Billy Mitchell. Haway and check out this canny celebration of the North East dialect!
