Sept 25th. Bob Fox and Billy Mitchell

Bob Fox and Billy Mitchell

Sorry all tickets are sold for this event. Either one of these could fill the room on their own so you know what to expect. Bob is one of the leading singers of the North East and his easy style belies the commitment and passion he brings to the genre while Billy’s pedigree of Lindisfarne and Jack the Lad and his song writing skills have made him a popular performer who is always in demand. Together they are wowing audiences at much larger venues .

Pete Coe

We start the new season with Pete Coe who is a versatile performer. He sings both contemporary and traditional, dances and plays (sometimes all together) which can leave you breathless but doesn’t seem to bother him! Pete’s own songs have been regarded as modern classics and are performed the length and breadth of the country often by people who think they are singing traditional songs. He is very popular at the club so come early for a seat.

July 10th. Colin Pitts

Colin Pitts

Colin Pitts first began performing in folk clubs while a student in Swansea in the late sixties. He re-emerged as a serious performer in the 1990’s with a reputation for writing songs that sometimes make you think, sometimes make you laugh and sometimes just make you feel good. Several, including “Jeannie’s Flag”, “Australian Wine” and “Let Her Lie” have been recorded by other singers and it is not unusual to hear them sung in a folk club, festival or on radio. Colin is back after an illness with a new crop of songs and his singing is stronger the ever.
