Singers Welcome
Mon 7 Feb 2022 – Malcolm Ward

Liz Randall & Roger Resch perform an eclectic mix of Shanties and other more reflective sea songs, both acapella and accompanied by various instruments. Plenty of chorus songs to sing along to. Impressed
This replaces Alan Reid, who unfortunately has had to cancel his tour for reasons affected by Covid. We hope to rebook him soon.

Songwriting retreat
We've received notification of a songwriting retreat taking place between 15th and 19th June. The legendary Jon Boden is hosting it and the venue will be located in idyllic surroundings in the west of Scotland. Details here.
New venue
Our first event at the Beer Seller on Monday was great! Karen Langridge (and friends/relatives) entertained and sang beautifully, there was a numerous and enthusiastic audience, and the venue more than lived up to our expectations. Join us on the 16th for the talented...
Forthcoming move
From the end of February the club will be re-locating to The Beer Seller, 64 High Street, Tonbridge, TN9 1EH. We have been grateful to the Flying Dutchman for hosting us, and have had some good sessions there, but have always felt the desirability of being in the town centre if possible. Starting with the Karen Langridge session on 2 March 2020 we will be in the upstairs function room at the Beer Seller, where they serve a splendid selection of real ales and a full range of other drinks. Do come and join us then if you can.
