Friday 3rd April 2009 Pete Coe in Concert
Singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and all round good bloke!
"Uniquely gifted as a terrific singer, accomplished multi-instrumentalist and thrilling step-dancer, sometimes all at once! An evening with Pete Coe is an exhilarating experience." Electric Theatre, Guildford
"He is simply the most entertaining & exciting performer about, giving so much value with sparkling enthusiasm for the music he purveys". Andy Leith, "Traditions at the Tiger" , Long Eaton
"The headliner was Pete Coe, from the UK, a tall, lanky "one-man Folk Show" with a predominantly traditional repertoire, a huge and wonderful voice, and a multi-instrumentalist and master of his craft. Add to all that his ability to dance in the clogging style whilst playing, he was a knock-out, and left his audiences gob-smacked." Auckland Festival New Zealand review

Monday 20th April 2009 Roy Bailey - Cancelled due to illness
5:30pm Family Concert - £3.00 - Cancelled due to illness
Roy is well know for singing childrens songs. Those that he sings are sometimes thought proviking, sometime humorous but they all engage with children, both young and old.
We are very fortunate to get Roy to come share these songs with the families in our community. The concert will last about an hour with a 15 minute break.
The Concert will be suitable for children who have reached an age where they can sit, listen and participate. Children attending the concert must be have an adult accompaying them.
8:00pm Main Concert- £6.00 - Cancelled due to illness
One the Folk World's finest voices, Roy Bailey has been performing for more than 40 years both in the UK and abroad. He has sung in folk clubs, in arts centres and in front of huge festival audiences at Sidmouth International Festival, Vancouver Folk Festival, the National Festival in Australia and many, many more. His warmth and humour create a unique atmosphere of humanity and comradeship and as Billy Bragg once said of him, "(Roy's voice is) as powerful and moving as anything I'd heard by The Clash"
Friday 22nd May 2009 Harvey Andrews in Concert - Cancelled due to illness
We are in for a night of fine songs, humour and hidden insights to life. Harvey has a rare ability to write songs which are not only enjoyable musically, but also contain brilliant lyrics.
