THE WORD IS SPREADING!

FOR THE LATEST NEWS AND VIEWS, HAVE A LOOK AT THE ROVING REPORTER PAGE.

A CHAP FROM CORNWALL LOOKED US UP AND TURNED UP AT RICHMOND FOLK CLUB, AS HE'D SEEN IT ON THIS WEBSITE!  SO DID A COUPLE FROM WORCESTERSHIRE AND A CHAP FROM LEEDS - SO WE ARE FINALLY NATIONWIDE!

THESE CLUBS ARE WHERE FRIENDS CAN BECOME FAMILY.  

WE WERE  DELIGHTED  TO CELEBRATE THE 🥳80th BIRTHDAY 🎉 OF THE LOVELY GENTLEMAN BRIAN COCKAYNE. HERE'S THE ' AS YOU WERE THERE' FILM MOMENTO  

Folk Roundabout 

The Home of Acoustic Clubs & Acoustic Open Mic Nights, Folk Music, Folk Dance & Customs...

 Anything live with no backing tracks! 

Regardless of whether you need to use music, tablets, etc . Orchestras do, so I have no problem with that. it does not detract from the sheet joy of song/poems etc. 

I am finding myself visiting as many clubs as I can to share them with you, so if you don't see me for a while, that's why. 

I am also big believer in keeping our Heritage Alive.

After a gentle request, the catchement area for Folk Roundabout now covers ALL of Yorkshire as well.

This made it all worth while. A chap came up to me and thanked me for running this website, as it had opened up so many things for him.  

Yes, it's where the lonely  people go, and where they no longer feel lonely.

Angels don't have wings, they have guitars!
