ONE HAND CLAPPING FUNDRAISER REVIEW 21 February 2014

Another great night of live music was enjoyed by all.

Mervyn opened the show with his musical lyrics and top notch guitar work.

Then came Queen Jan who lived up to her name with her dynamic and musically inventive set, featuring the bodhran, guitar and ukulele.  She radiates power and confidence and good humour, and we always enjoy her performance.

One Hand Clapping finished the evening with a terrific set which alternated between high energy and soulful melodic songs.  Tim and Chris are a great duo and complement each other brilliantly with fiddle and guitar.  They were on great form and obviously enjoyed themselves.  This enjoyment was infectious and had us all dancing by the end of the evening.

Thanks to Mervyn for the sound which was brilliant as always, to Ken the MC, to those who donated raffle prizes and helped to sell tickets, and to you the audience for making the night a great success.  Let's hope that the Houghton Weavers concert on April 18th is just as good!

 



 



GARY AND VERA CONCERT REVIEW

Another great night of music making, thanks to all who helped - 8 November 2013.

 

Coppull Folk’s fundraiser was a wonderful night of live music.  Talented regulars Ken, Jim, Steve,  and Mervyn did us proud with their melodic sets .   Bryn provided some brilliant guitar accompaniment to Steve and Jim, and a few people even remarked that the main guests Gary and Vera had a very hard act to follow!  However Gary and Vera got into their stride with their Lanky jokes, stories and songs and had us all laughing for most of the night.  Thanks to all who performed, to Mervyn who did an excellent job with the sound, and to you the audience who came from near and far to support promoting live music, and, the next Folk Festival  at the Alison Arms in June 2014.
