NEW! - Steady Session at the Seven Stars
Starting on Monday the 21st of October 2019 at the Seven Stars Inn, Aberedw, Near Builth Wells, LD2 3UW from 8pm. Organised and supported by TASC
Come along to the first folk session of its kind in the Builth Wells area… for people who play fiddle, flute, whistle, squeezebox, mandolin, guitar – in fact almost any acoustic instrument which suits a traditional tune and blends with other instruments – and would prefer the opportunity to play folk tunes at a steadier pace than in the typical folk music session, or want to learn some new tunes at a more relaxed pace.
.This session is also good for people who are an experienced ‘sessioner’ on one instrument but starting to play a new type of instrument. Open to all – listeners as well as players!

Many thanks to Almeley Steady Session and Tuneworks for their help. Go the Tunes

In the pipeline …
There is a whisper that the much-loved Twelfth Night evening at Llandinam Village Hall might be reappearing in 2020! Watch this space – and keep the evening of the 4th of January 2020 free in your diary.
A harmony singing workshop in Montgomery next spring is also a strong possibility – interested?
