WESSEX ACOUSTIC FOLK CLUB

 

What a delightful night we had with the one and only Vin Garbutt last Friday. Vin was on top form and presented us with an evening of a selection of some of his newest songs from his latest CD mixed in with some old songs from years past. What an amazing song writer he is.

The evening got off to a lively rocking start with Men in Black who got us all tapping our feet and singing along to some ?golden oldies' we could scarily remember the words to!

Thank you to all who came and tested our full house layout with the new furniture in place. It was cosy but I hope not too cramped.

 

Coming next are  the fabulous Chris and Kellie While. Friday 3rd July is the night.

Kellie takes after her Mum with a stunning voice, making their duets out of this world. Double the talent for the price of one.

 

To complete the line up for the night we had to get someone special - and we have! The red headed singer and multi-instrumentalist previously with Colvin Quarmby and the Gerry Colvin Band, now playing with ?Trad arrr' and ?The Jigantics', Marion Fleetwood, will be opening the evening.

Her very recently released album "Holding SPACE" is a ?must buy'. Every track is a delight! So make sure you have enough money to buy a CD from Chris and Kellie and one from Marion! After hearing them all you will want to take home a memory of the night.

It is rare for talent like this to be on the same bill at a small club and it promises to be one of our most memorable concerts of the year.

Book your tickets now! ?12 in advance (pay cash when you come), ?14 on the door. Tickets available with Debit/Credit cards online at WeGotTickets.

 

If you prefer to talk to a real person you can call Kathy on 01202 732239 or 07590 411515 to book, or just reply to this email NOW.

This is our final concert of the season and we take a break until September 4th.

Keep an eye on the website for what's happening in the Autumn or take home one of our new ?white' flyers.

 

Please help us keep music live.
