Deptford Folk Night 25th April featuring Martin and Max, Tommy and Alex plus floor spots!

Hi all,

Further folking up will be happening on 25th April!

We have two very familial featured acts for April – our first act will be the father and child duo of Martin and Max Howard who will be performing folk with a punk edge, an eclectic mix of original songs and classics.

Our second act will be the brother duo of Alex and Tommy MacDonald who will be bringing a baffling mix of Celtic folk, labour songs, blues and New Orleans jazz to the table.

There will also be plenty of slots available for anyone who wants to sing a song, play a tune, do a dance or read a poem – all acoustic and unamplified in true folk club style, of course!

Although entry is free, we have a suggested donation of £5 if you like what you hear.

Things will kick off from around 7:30, but would recommend turning up from around 7 if you want to secure a floor spot.

Look forward to seeing you all there!

Alex, Martin & Sarah
