Our next guest, 9 April: Brian Peters

Brian Peters is one of the English folk scene’s great all-rounders, a compelling singer and an outstanding multi-instrumentalist on both squeezeboxes and strings. Brian is one of this country’s best anglo-concertina players, is just as good on melodeon and plays guitar to a high standard, recently adding banjo to his act. Well known for towering renditions of Child Ballads and other songs from the English tradition, Brian’s repertoire is full of variety, fire and humour. He also has a deep knowledge of the history behind the old songs, which is why he’s a guest at most folk festivals as a workshop leader working with many musicians.  

Members can come in for £10 whilst non-members pay £12. You can pay using our card machine, so cash is only needed for the raffle. Doors open at 7.45 pm for an 8.15 start, and we finish by 11pm.

Brian is followed by Hase Waits on 14 May and Wayward Jane on 28 May.
