Monthly Folk night in Dulwich
OUR NEW LOCATION IS THE CASTLE PUB!!
The Wilderness Yet are fiercely talented musicians who blend traditional songs with their own songs to focus on the essential importance of the natural world. They are singer Rosie Hodgson, traditional fiddler Rowan Piggott, and guitarist-flautist Philippe Barnes. Taking their name from a poem by Manley-Hopkins, (let them be left, oh let them be left, long live the weeds and the wilderness yet) expect songs about the countryside, threatened species and murder ballads and traditional tunes too!
Rosie and Phillippe were part of the London Irish band CrossHarbour and Rowan learnt his music in Clare. Rosie and Rowan both have albums of their own and Rowan organised the Songhive project whose songs highlight the threat to bees from pesticide use.
A band whose time has come!
Doors 7pm
On Sunday December 5th we welcome The Wilderness Yet to Dulwich Folk!
