The Chemic Tavern, 9 Johnston Street, Leeds LS6 2NG  🐶

Every Thursday from 7.30pm - House guitar and piano available  - Free drink for all performers 

FACEBOOK PAGE 📨 chemictavern97@gmail.com

Come down from 8pm every Thursday to enjoy the splendour of the Chemic's dedicated live music room - no bar noise, no TVs, no one-armed bandits, just a great sound and light system, a lovingly restored pre-WWI piano, and a respectful and attentive crowd of fellow musicians and music aficionados.

Can't bring your own instrument? As well as the aforementioned piano, I'll also be making my guitar available to those who wish to play it. And as an added incentive, all performers will receive a token for a free drink! All styles and all levels of ability welcome. And if you're not a musician, don't let that put you off - we're just as happy to host poets, comedians, you name it.

We always try to accommodate our performers' needs and put them on at the rough time they want to play. Perhaps you need to be done by a certain time to catch the last bus home, or maybe you're like me and prefer to go on a bit later after you've had a few drinks; we'll do what we can to put you onstage at a time that suits you.

We’re not dead!

This is the kind of thing people put before they disappear, but we are alive and well and to be honest – we’re thriving.

We tend to have “fallow” years in which we play 4 or 5 gigs and then busy years where we do over a dozen. 2023 was a very quiet year. I think we played in public 5 times (Summer fetes, wedding, etc) .

What I don’t do is update this particular page. I update the Music page all the time. We have a very active and private Facebook group for people who actually play in the group.

We still meet every week on odd Wednesdays and Mondays – just to confuse.

Check the calendar to find out when we play and contact me for more details.

The Friendly Folk Club...

Raising the Rafters is a club that runs on one thing - generosity - and over the years we've built up a large band of supporters who all agree that Raising the Rafters is a friendly folk club and it doesn’t matter whether you want to bring an instrument and join in or just come and soak up the atmosphere and the music....you’ll be very welcome. The door prices are kept deliberately low at a flat rate of £5 per person and as there are no rip-off bar prices to pay, a Raising the Rafters evening is a good value night out! Young people 16 and under - admission free.


And It’s All For Charity........!

Everything we raise goes to charity! We have raised over TWENTY THOUSAND POUNDS for good causes since we started! Generally we leave it to the guest to choose which charity to support and we are the means of turning their musical talent into money for their chosen charity. Sometimes we ask our supporters. It's a unique model of a folk club..... got a charity you'd like us to support? Email Hugo and tell him!

RAISING THE RAFTERS FOLK CLUB

The Saint James Rooms, Church Street, Wath-upon-Dearne  S63 7RD


SINGERS & MUSICIANS  2nd Saturday at 7.30pm


WEBSITE ☎️  07522 576855   📨  hugo@raisingtherafters.co.uk 


The clue’s in the name...

'Raising the Rafters Folk Club' started in May 2013 to raise money for the Wath-upon-Dearne Parish Church roof appeal (hence the name!) – and it’s all gone on from there! We raised nearly £2000 to help rescue one of the finest Tudor roofs in England and have gone on to become what we believe is a unique Folk Club! - a Folk Club which exists to raise money for local and national charities. Our motto? - Everything we take, we donate!


Every second Saturday of the month. Starts at 8.00 p.m. in the Saint James Rooms, Church Street, Wath-upon-Dearne, S63 7RD, in the centre of Wath (doors open at 7.30 p.m.), next to Wath All Saints Parish Church. 

There’s free parking next door at the Montgomery Hall Car Park and further down Church Street at the Saracens Head Car Park and a 24hr Tesco across the road, which is handy as the Saint James Rooms are not licensed. Don’t worry, it’s not a “dry” folk club (there’s no such thing!). All visitors are encouraged to bring their own wine, beer and spirits and we provide the glasses. (we even do the washing up!)
