The White Lion

An open session featuring a lot of Irish and English folk tunes. European and American tunes keep popping up and we sing songs too. Nevertheless, all styles and instruments are welcome, beginners or more experienced players.

It gets going about 8-30pm and there is normally a few regular musicians to keep things moving. It’s a ‘jump-in-when-you feel-like-it’ session rather than a strict ‘take-it-in-turns approach. Come and listen or join in as much or as little as you wish. As long as it’s acoustic - that’s fine.

It falls on the third or fourth Wednesday of the month and varies to avoid clashing with other local sessions. It will take place on the following dates.
Wednesday 19th September 2018
Wednesday 17th October 2018
Wednesday 14th November

We also run a session each month at the Hawk.

Our final session of 2018 is on Wednesday 19th December. All welcome to play and/or listen! Cheers.

Always the third Wednesday of the month at the moment. It would be nice to see new blood.

We are still going strong at this pub - many locals come and listen so we must be doing something right! Third Wednesday as always, we’ll make you welcome whatever you play. Next session Wednesday August 21st 2019.

This session is going well. The first one of 2020 is on January 15th. All welcome.

Session suspended for the time being (however long that may be).
