Special events
Every 4th Sunday: Michelle's Music Nights. Starts about 8 pm.
A broad-ranging evening of folk-based music and words named in memory of
Michelle Holding, who hosted the sessions with Bonz Barnes from their
resumption after Covid to the end of 2023. Come along to sing, share
and listen to traditional, contemporary and instrumental folk, plus
poetry, blues and country, in a singaround format. Contact Bonz at:
bonz1@btinternet.com for enquiries, or to add your name to the mailing list.
Note that it is not the last Sunday. Often it's the same thing but not always.
The next one will be on April 26.

Pete Coe
Saturday April 25, 8 pm
Pete has been a professional musician since 1971, playing throughout Britain, Europe, Asia, New Zealand & USA . During the ‘70s he toured and recorded with Chris Coe, and was a member of the legendary New Victory Band. Since 1985 he’s mainly worked as a soloist.
His strong, distinctive voice is enhanced by his instrumental versatility, the ringing strings of his bouzouki, the sweet chords of his mountain dulcimer, the plaintive frailing banjo & the pulsing reeds of his melodeon.
Tickets (£10 for advance booking) are available from the Club and from George Street Bookshop. Also online from wegottickets
