Huge thanks to Philipson for her wonderful hospitality and to her team at Walthamstow Folk for their amazingly warm welcome on our first visit - a joy from start to finish. Special thanks to Simon Armstrong for the best sound . Lovely to see and hear Pal, Daphne and Lauren, as well as fellow Coventry Singer Songwriter, Al Neville. Ye Olde Rose and Crown served up superb Sunday roasts and great ale/cider. A most enjoyable experience!

Sunday 3 November 7.30pm
THE HAAR
with floorspots available on the night

Irish supergroup, The Haar, brings the fresh talent of traditional Irish singer Molly Donnery combined with three of the most exciting instrumentalists on the folk and traditional music circuit: Cormac Byrne (Instrumentalist of the Year 2019, FATEA Magazine Music Awards), Adam Summerhayes (‘a Paganini of the traditional violin’ fROOTS) and Murray Grainger (‘Gorgeous stuff’ BBC Radio 3).

“This is not a dyed-green-Guinness-and-a-bit-o’-craic Ireland, this is the coast of Connemara Ireland, this is watching the fog roll in around The Skellig Islands Ireland… Devastatingly beautiful” Bristol 24/7

If you're looking for something to do in London tomorrow, and you're about as old as us, then this is the show to go to. It was fantastic in Broadstairs 25ish years ago, and, well, they've had 25ish years to review, improve, perfect it and make Mouse Masks. So it should be even better.

Coming to Bagpuss’s 50th birthday concert at Cecil Sharp House tomorrow? Print out your own mouse mask (mice of any size) and be part of the marvellous mechanical mouse organ!

Jerry Glover shows a perennial wheatgrass plant's long roots which grow deeper than annual plants' roots. Using perennials, crops that can be harvested more than once without replanting, may be the key for feeding more people while conserving farmland soil.

We were due a visit from these guys, so no excuses for missing this, and its on a Sunday evening too!

Have you been missing our duo? We have sure missed you. Well, this Sunday you can join us for a very special concert, Live at Sam's, streamed on Zoom, live and ready to fill your homes with music. Please join us if you can - we have not been able to do much performing since March and this is only our second full concert since then, so we are busting to sing for you. It's only £12 and we will give you our all. Please share.
Hope you are managing in these hard times.
Nancy and James

To book, please click on the link below. You will be sent an email with PayPal details. All tickets paid for by midday on Sunday (gig day) will be redeemed with an email to the email address you provide on the booking form, containing the Zoom link for the concert.
Please note: We will be closing the box office at midday Sunday Nov 29th so if you want a ticket, please ensure you pay before that time, ideally on Saturday if possible. Thanks!

CLUB SUSPENDED

With great regret we have to announce that in light of the current public health crisis we have decided to suspend the club for the time being.

This isn't a decision we have taken lightly and we're pretty heartbroken about it but we decided it was the only responsible thing to do under the circumstances.

We had hoped to be back in action for our Autumn season, but we will now be closed for the forseeable future. Check here and on our website for updates.

We hope all our friends and supporters stay safe and healthy and we'll look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Please help our home during these wretched times, or there won't be a folk club to come back...
