PLEASE NOTE: This is mainly an English Trad/ Morris session but with a healthy dollop of Irish!
Great little pub! Many, many ales, craft beers, ciders et cetera…
Come and enjoy the diversity that South London brings!!!

Hi - I like an English session. Are the first and third Wednesdays very stable and regular? Do you have a Facebook page or Twitter for this session or any way to check it’s definitely on?

Session tomorrow: Wed 18 Oct 2017.

In addition to the regular mixed sessions indicated above, there is now a new regular session on the 4th Wed of the month.
Please note!!!!! This is a special Morris Tunes sesh lead by Black Swan Border Morris Side. But all players are welcome!!!

..and Glasgow on the 11th!

Sesh as usual tonight at Traf. We will be remembering Pat Clune whose funeral it was today.

After a ten month camping out in the Trafalgar, I am pleased to announce this session is returning to its spiritual home at the Kilkenny Tavern.
First session back there is next Tuesday 26 February 2019 at about 9.30.
I would like to thank Rodger Molyneux, landlord of the Traf, for generously hosting us during the exile.

Meanwhile, the Trad English Music sessions continue as normal on the first and third Wednesdays.

The session late of the Kilkenny Tavern (the Dark House) is now, again, in exile at theTraf.
Tuesday nights, 9.00pm.

All welcome, great players, great beer and cider et cetera!!!

Well! It was hot and clammy in Traf tonight! Clare, Alan, Rosie O’L, Brendan McC, Kev B, Sarah P, Mick S, Richard, Tony And myself. As Mr Sands said,”that wasn’t a set of tunes, it was a sauna of tunes”.
Roll on Autumn weather!!

OK groovesters!
This week (Tuesday) 3 September 2019 (Gregorian Calendar) is Trad Irish Sesh expecting the O’Leary’s, Brendan McCauley probably Kev Boyle, Mick Sands et al.
A splendid diddlement is guaranteed.
On Wed 4 Sept 2019, same sort of thing, but different flavour with Trad English sesh with one expecting Sarah Pavey, Chris Evans, various Morris and ‘with a hey donny noe’ affiliated yoke holders and the unexpected!
A splendid rumperty tumperty-ness is guaranteed!
Fab beer and cider and all sorts of drinkable liquids.
Some go to both (and completely understand the difference!)

"Irish trad session will be returning to our home of 25 years, The Kilkenny Tavern, 131, Merton High St, SW19 1DE beside South Wimbledon tube station, Northern Line on Tuesday 15th Oct at 9pm. Hope you can join us regularly, musicians and listeners very welcome"
