WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ON A CLUB NIGHT

  • You'll find a friendly and knowledgeable crowd with a shared love of folk music.
  • We don’t have paid guests on club nights. We entertain each other in true folk style.
  • We do try to fit in everyone who wants to perform, but cannot guarantee a slot to those who arrive after the evening has started, especially on a crowded night.
  • We laugh and joke a lot, but we listen respectfully to all performances. We ask people not to talk or go in and out of the room while others are performing.
  • The club has always been a place where traditional song is at home, but we also enjoy all kinds of songs, music and spoken word in the acoustic folk idiom.
  • Our tradition is not to perform from sheet music, written words or use amplification.
  • We love to join in by singing harmonies on choruses, but we don’t play spontaneously with instruments to other people’s performances as you might at a pub session.

A PLACE WHERE TRADITIONAL SONG IS AT HOME

Come and join us. CLUB FLYER. The club that loves to sing!
