Bodmin Folk Club

Bodmin Folk Club The home of traditional folk song in Cornwall. Established 1968. They decided to start a club to raise funds for British folksingers to visit Cornwall.

In the Late 1960s a tide of contemporary American folk music was sweeping Britain and several clubs in Cornwall featured this material. However, in 1967 a small group of traditional singers, including Vic Legg and Lar Cann started meeting for weekly sessions in the Masons' Arms, Bodmin. The first recorded club night of the Bodmin Traditional Folk Club, as it was then, was on 31st May 1968 in an upper room at The Barley Sheaf.
