Dates

Dates for the Autumn Season and beyond are:

2nd September – Performer’s night

The last session of our relaxed summer season. Come along and brighten up the late summer and help to keep autumn at bay for a little longer with music and song

23rd September – Bring Some Folk Night

We launch our first autumn season with this special event. Bring your friends and associates, kicking and screaming if necessary, and let’s show people what they have been missing. There will be some surprises in store!

7th October – Performer’s night

Great music, excellent company and a pint or two of fine beer. Maybe even some "brought folk"! What a great way to spend a Thursday evening.

21st October – Performer's night featuring Simon Coverdale

Club regular and oft times MC Simon will be entertaining us with an extended feature spot tonight. As well as his usual driving guitar and inspired vocals, Simon has hinted that there may be a sprinkling of something a little different. Lots of our normal two song performer's spots will be available along with all the usual ingredients of performer's nights so come along and enjoy our very first feature night.

2nd November - Performer's night - NB this is a Tuesday and not the usual Thursday

18th November - Dan Walsh and Will Pound

Touted as the finest banjo player in the UK, Dan Walsh is an eclectic and exciting musician with a unique style taking in folk, funk, bluegrass, jazz, rock and even Arabic. Will Pound is one of the most accomplished Chromatic and Diatonic Harmonica players around on the music scene today. Together they are making a massive impact wherever they perform. Don't miss this very special evening.

3rd February - Tom Kitching and Gren Bartley

Tom Kitching and Gren Bartley are one of the brightest young acts on the folk scene today. Playing music from a remarkably broad range of sources, their new album ‘Boundary’ crosses genres with a healthy disdain for arbitrary pigeon-holing of styles and traditions. Tom's bright fiddle and Gren's acclaimed finger style guitar form an irresistable combination.

17th February – Performer’s night

10th March – Performer’s night

24th March – Isambarde

"ISAMBARDE are a folk band with tremendous energy and enthusiasm. They are the unusual and winning combination of Chris's driving guitar, Emily's incisive fiddle playing and Jude's lyrical oboe coupled with great full on vocal harmonies. They play a great set and are an asset to any festival bill. Book 'em!!"
