Damien Barber on Friday 1 March

Posted on by

This year Damien Barber is celebrating 30 years as a professional folk musician. Raised in Norfolk and heavily influenced by such earlier Norfolk singers as Walter Pardon and Peter Bellamy, Damien is a stylish and distinctive singer, either a capella or accompanied on guitar or concertina. Though he has lived in West Yorkshire for over 20 years, he retains a strong East Anglian identity.

 

 

 

 

 

Best known in recent years for his critically acclaimed stage shows ‘The Demon Barbers XL’ and ‘The Lock In’, Damien is now returning to the traditional songs of East Anglia that ignited his passion in folk music. This will be his first solo performance for 18 years!

Tickets £11 (£8 club members). SOLD OUT. Email via our contact page for returns and we will let you know if you have been successful. Bring your own drinks. Teas and coffee available in the kitchen.

Vicki Swan and Jonny Dyer on Friday 15 February

Singers and multi-instrumentalists Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer effortlessly blend traditional material with contemporary sounds. Their performances showcase new interpretations of old songs alongside original self-penned tunes and new contemporary songs that are entirely at home in the tradition. Winter 2016 saw Vicki & Jonny as the front cover of the Living Tradition Magazine with a centre spread interview.

Be entranced by the haunting nyckelharpa, amazed at the cow horn (one of the world’s earliest communication devices) and meet some of the bagpipes that didn’t come from Scotland.

Tickets £11 (£8 members)  can be reserved by emailing via our contact page. Bring your own drinks. Teas and coffee available in the kitchen.
