guests

2 Jan The Tindalls
Paula and Stuart Tindall have been singing together in folk clubs and pubs since the early 80's. Both are fine singers and Stuart plays a mean guitar. They are now joined by daughters Sarah (15) on bass guitar and recorder, and Kathryn (12) on flute, recorder and rhythm guitar.

6 Feb Hex
Three powerful and authentic folk voices combined to chilling effect. There's nothing sweet about these harmonies so prepare to feel the hairs stand up on the back of your neck!

5 March Steve Tilston
Steve is a stalwart of the English folk scene. He is a world class writer of songs such as "Slip Jigs and Reels," a fine vocalist and a superb guitarist. Best get there early!

2 April Singers Night - always a popular attraction Singers are invited to contribute to the theme of "songs of love and war" but there's no punishment for those who don't. There's also an extended spot from terrific local singer (and now songwriter) Lisa Banks

7 May Gren Bartley and Tom Kitching
A great up and coming young duo. Tom plays fine fiddle, has been a Young Folk Award finalist, and is very entertaining. Gren has a great voice and is a future superstar of finger style guitar.

4 June Tom Bliss
Without Tom Napper this time: those who saw them both here a couple of years ago will surely want to come back for more, and have a chance to hear Tom's more wide-ranging solo set.

2 July - Cockersdale
Graham Pirt, Val Marsden and John O'Hagan are back with their three-part harmony versions of Keith Marsden' s songs (and some of their own too).

6 August Lyra Celtica
Lynn Tocker on accordion, Mark Canning on guitar and bouzouki, and Frank McGuire on bodrhan, percussion, whistles and vocals. Not to be missed: have a look at their You Tube clips.
