Lord Eldon

First Tuesday of the month. 9pm.

Hello Andy,
I’ve just seen your session listed on ‘The Session’. What sort of music will it be? I’m in Newcastle, Staffs. so not too far away. You can see details of our session on the website.

Best wishes,

Martin D’Arcy

Hello Martin

Thanks for the interest.

The music depends on who turns up! More seriously, it tends to be English, Scottish, and a little Irish and French trad folk music, and with a few contempoary or traditional songs from one of the regular guitarists. We are pretty open to people doing other things, and a poet sometimes does his stuff.

I’ll check out your session thanks, as it is not far,

Best wishes
Andy

We now start at around 8.30pm. English, Scottish, Irish and a bit of French tunes at a fairly steady pace, plus contemporary and traditional acoustic songs.

The session is currently taking place in a private house. Please message me for details if you are interested in attending . Timing remains 8.30pm on first Tuesday in the month.

As I stated last year, the session was temporarily meeting in private houses, but following a trial in December we are now back in the pub, and keen to see both old and new faces.

The music depends on who turns up and varies from month to month! The repertoire does however tend to be mainly English, Scottish, Irish and French trad folk music, and with a few contemporary or traditional songs from one of the regular singers. We are pretty open to people doing other things, such as when a local early English poetry academic does a recitation.
