DUEA!

​

We don't normally have an August gig but I have persuaded Duea to come to England specially ! I invited them because I saw them at Purbeck Valley Folk Festival last year and I thought their act was far and away the best act there. If you're in London come along for a great evening.

​​​​

Sisters Chiara and Sara are from the Varaita Valley in Piedmont. They are fiddle and accordion players who play with joy, brilliance and with uncanny sibling togetherness.   They play traditional Italian dance music as well as slow airs and their own traditionally influenced tunes.  Check them out on Duea.info.  

​​​​​​​​

Entrance Tonight is £13

CLUB DEBRIS!

A warm welcome back to Club Debris who packed us out when they played here before. Five musicians with a wonderfully varied background playing high energy trad/folk music in brazenly major keys; no nonsense tunes (fiddles, accordion mandolin and keyboards) with a pro-nonsense attitude and a no nonsense step dancer!

​​​

The band's music draws on the French Canadian tradition, with North American and Irish/Scottish influences; they were got together by fiddle player Maisie Greenwood, who fell in love with Quebecois music after visiting Montreal. The band also includes fiddle/accordion player Will Allen of Brown Boots fame, Duncan Menzies who has also played at Dulwich with Copper Viper and the Clementine Lovell Trio, keyboard player Will Chamberlain  with Jess Collins on percussive dance .

​​​

They are natural band for festivals given that most of their material is high energy dance music so we are particularly pleased to tempt them back to a folk club gig. It will be a great one. Get here early.

​

 Entrance tonight is £15.

5 October STEVE TURNER

​

Steve has been around for a long time but he is and has always been a great live performer who doesn't play in London nearly often enough. He is acknowledged as one of our very best concertina players and is a terrific singer of (mainly) traditional songs. He is an artists who should be much better known. Check him out on https://steve-turner.co.uk/  

​

Entrance tonight is £10

2 November

​

ERROL LINTON TRIO.  

​

When Errol isn't playing in Jazz festivals he plays regularly in Brixton, so it's completely appropriate that he is the first blues act that we've booked. This is black British music with roots in Mississippi and New Orleans, Kingston and London. Widely regarded as the best British blues harp player expect ace harmonica, keyboards and double bass from the blues king of Brixton. Check him out at www.errollinton.com   

​

Entrance tonight is £12

THE COPPER FAMILY 

​

Such a privilege and pleasure to welcome the Coppers back! Southern England's greatest traditional folk hits from the family that kept the songs for us. Get here early.
