We Are ...
A bunch of enthusiastic folkies that meet weekly to share words and music in a very broad folk tradition.
In addition to the club regulars we warmly welcome many visitors, both performers and audience, to our club nights.
In addition to the regular Club Nights we also hold Sessions in various local pubs, where everyone is welcome to join in playing tunes and songs.
We also organise two
FREE FOLK FESTIVALS
in Melton Mowbray each year.
We encourage a wide variety of styles within our club, almost to the point of "All Music is Folk Music". From Medieval and Renaissance lute music and song, through folk song and dance of later centuries, to the more recent folk revival and singer/songwriter genre. We also encourage the reading and writing of poetry as an adjunct to the music. We embrace the various traditions of music of the British Isles and the Blues and Country music of the USA, along with less well known styles of the rest of the world.
The only limitation that we tend to hold to is that we are primarily an ACOUSTIC club.
