The most brilliant and baffling show I'm likely to see this year.” - Timeout NY
Straddling the line between music hall turn and avant-garde performance artist, Broughton’s live show is not to be missed.” - MOJO magazine

Andy Abbot supports. TICKETS
DIANE CLUCK APRIL 21st. A singer-songwriter of intuitive folk music based in Charlottesville, Virginia. Support comes from Miranda Arieh

“Diane Cluck is a virtuosic talent with an emotionality that feels at once ancient and alien. Her mastery of her voice as an ecstatic instrument is so compelling.” – Anohni (of Antony & The Johnsons)

"I grew up on 60s music, but my first contemporary music love was Diane Cluck." - Laura Marling TICKETS

Stanley Brinks and Freschard on Easter Bank Holiday Monday April 22nd. An endless stream of joyous, roaming calypso pop. Utterly charming and happy-making hits. Making music like its a walk in the park. TICKETS (A chunk of folk have secured their Easter Monday party places nice and early (a quarter gone)). Fruit wine will be a-flowing.
Brigid Mae Power April 28th. Another craftily curated night of Folk-wonder by Cosmos. BRIGID MAE POWER is an Irish singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who, like Judee Sill, Micky Newbury or Linda Perhacs before her, paints her songs in dreamily expansive strokes, transporting earthly compositions into universal and exultant realms.
TICKETS
James Yorkston. May 5th. In the small Scottish fishing village of Cellardyke, where he lives. Yorkston’s studio is a ramshackle old loft space, originally used to repair fisherman’s nets, and now stuffed full the antique instruments James has collected throughout his life as a musician. Having created hours of recordings, James called up his old collaborator David Wrench - the mixer and producer who has worked with the likes of Caribou, Four Tet, Frank Ocean, FKA Twigs and David Byrne - to help bring about this current album. TICKETS Well under way (half sold)
Say Sue Me. May 12th. A W E S O M E ! here last time around (A big breakthrough act of 2018) Not K-Pop! Korea's biggest indie pop band. Say Sue Me are making waves with their infectious-surf-rock beach sound played at a great lick. Fantastic catchy jangly pop-a-billy riffs with cool happy vocals from Sumi Choi. TICKETS - (Going like hot bao buns (won't last long)).
Thomas Truax May 19th. You just have to see this guy, at least 10 times in your life. Inventive beyond compare  - his life is a work of intricate assemblage  and fantastical subjects in song.
TICKETS (Always a room filler)
Martin and Eliza Carthy May 26th

An incredible Waiting Room occasion.

Last few tickets are HERE
Just added (this week) Amelia Coburn. Less than half of tickets still remaining. Beautful, haunting voice, beguiling folk-tinged original material and an ever expanding repertoire of unusual cover versions played on equally unusual instruments (kazoo, stylophone, glockenspiel anyone?)
TICKETS
Looking ahead - to November 24th
MARTIN SIMPSON
The remarkable intimate solo performances Martin gives go from strength to strength - every gig is a masterclass. He travels the length and breadth of the UK and beyond, giving rapt audiences passion, sorrow, love, beauty, tragedy and majesty through his playing.
TICKETS (Up and running)
OK. THAT'S IT FOR TONIGHT.
