The Goose Is Out! Americana Night with JackDaw, Jack Harris, Dan Raza, The Ivy House 40 Stuart Road SE15 3BE, Friday 30 May 7PM. Tickets https://wegottickets.com/thegooseisout JackDaw is an acoustic gathering of Rob Anderson, Gaby Szabo and Lyle Zimmerman. Sometimes joined by Charlie Austen and/or other friends, they play a combination of songs written by Rob, his old bandmate, cult 1970’s Oregon songwriter Wayne Drury, and beloved others. The 2023 release, ‘Ghost InThe Big House’, began as a lockdown project with Rob working out songs, emailing vocal and acoustic guitar tracks to Lyle, who sandpapered, waxed and weeded a band-and-a-half’s-worth of dusty twang and jangle from his home studio’s instrument menagerie. Drums from Jay Shaw and Dan Purtell and plush harmonies from Gaby, Charlie and Lizzy O’Connor, were added, ending up with an album that RnR magazine described as “Neil Young reworking the Rolling Stones’ ‘Wild Horses’”. Their intimate live performances strip the songs down and bring forward dusty roots and harmonies. RnR magazine... Four stars…dusty but lucid high desert stories” Americana-UK magazine November 2023 - “ A joyful confident album … a sage-like quality to the songs” https://fb.watch/y6ZNYnd2cI/ Steeped in myth and mystery Jack Harris's songs bring the narrative tradition of folk and blues music into the here and now. His debut album 'Broken Yellow' received great acclaim in song- writing circles. Influenced by the old country blues masters (and folk singers of the British Isles), his performances are a riveting display of soulful, smoky vocals and intricate, finger-style guitar playing. "Jack Harris is a priest of song who holds himself to a rigorous ancient code of beauty most of us have forgotten exists" - Anais Mitchell https://youtu.be/ZlyiriRai0U?si=GLzoWRX6dwJZSHKC Dan Raza has kindly agreed to replace Joe Wilkes who can no longer do the gig. Plucked while still a student to tour with Joan Armatrading, and championed by Neil Young on his ‘Living With War’ website, Dan Raza has spent the first chapter of his career weaving folk troubadour magic around the clubs and halls of the UK, America and Europe while quietly building a reputation as one of the UK’s best-kept musical secrets. ‘The real deal’ – Huey Morgan, BBC Radio 2 “Killer songs” -Tom Paxton “A writer who has matured into one of this country’s finest” – Country Music Magazine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gznPmeFFD3U

Tickets: https://wegottickets.com/thegooseisout We're delighted to have John returning to The Goose! Tonight will be the LONDON LAUNCH OF HIS NEW SHOW "200 YEARS OF THE SQUEEZEBOX"!

Expect a fantastic variety of tunes and songs ranging way beyond John's usual "folk roots"! They will include themes from the classics, well-loved songs, dance music of all kinds and the occasional lugubrious hymn by way of contrast, all played in John's inimitable style on the Anglo Concertina, the Melodeon and the Button Accordion! https://youtu.be/8zSa1eElxNE?si=SWFc6ruUQT4ORGZa "Lucy & Hazel are surely the queens of the new vibe of British folk to be emerging from the radical activist left. Folk music just got very exciting!" - Sam Lee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP3xB5CPOY4&t=21s Matt Milton sings traditional folk and blues songs, and plays guitar, fiddle and banjo.

The Goose Is Out! Damien Barber & Mike Wilson, Creeping Jane, James Eagle, The Ivy House, 40 Stuart Road SE15, Friday 28 March. Tickets: https://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout We are delighted to be welcoming Damien Barber & Mike Wilson to the Goose for the first time, but we hope not the last! Damien Barber is a stylish and distinctive singer, be it unaccompanied or alongside his guitar or concertina. Though he has now lived for some time in West Yorkshire, his roots remain firmly planted in his beloved East Anglia. Mike Wilson is the youngest member of the inimitable Wilson Family, the powerful Teesside singing siblings who have raised the rafters at many a festival and folk club event over the years. His musical heritage remains emphatically that of the North East – an evocative mixture of rural and industrial folk songs, both traditional and modern. Together, Damien and Mike have an incredibly rich shared repertoire of traditional songs from around the country, plus the work of modern folk writers such as Peter Bellamy, Ewan MacColl and Mike Waterson. They are two of the most powerful traditional voices in the UK today. Creeping Jane is/are Nyge and Sue, who have been running The Goose Is Out! since 2008. They sing unaccompanied in unison and harmony, mainly but not solely traditional folk songs from the UK. James Eagle is a past winner of Islington Folk Club's Trad2Mad competition. He is a regular at the Goose monthly singarounds, both as a wonderful singer and also often as a familiar face on the door! He also edits Folk London magazine!

"Jon Wilks is a rather special performer with an authentic and abiding love of traditional song." Folk Radio “Jon Wilks is the real deal” - Martin Simpson https://youtu.be/5N5q6JV9M_o?si=-09st1iHr4WMhENq https://youtu.be/2Rr5Jd-sPJs?si=UMXwmAwBFEjQQKjg https://youtu.be/zTuMN5gIRLc?si=oGUziqm-tByctQcD Duncan McTaggart is a composer, singer-songwriter and interpreter of traditional folk songs.

untilhttps://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout The trio have been heralded for their lively performances and skilled delivery of traditional material, playing with verve, energy and their own inimitable style. Though grounded in tradition, they are keen to push new boundaries by exploring fresh approaches and writing their own compositions. In October 2021, they released their latest album, The Brickfields, an instrumental collection that sees them reach new heights both as performers and composers. Described by Folk Radio as “one of the most exciting and accomplished English folk acts on the scene right now”, this outstanding trio can hold audiences in the palm of their hand. “Their high-octane take on English folk has brought a whole new audience to the genre” - The Irish Times “Great tunes, great energy, great arrangements, great stuff!” - Jon Boden “A superb folk trio” - RNR Magazine “Traditional folk music taken far beyond its parameters” - Tykes News Rob Quo & Pearl Fish are a captivating contemporary roots duo. Rob is from the rural midlands and Pearl originally from Peckham. They met on London’s burgeoning Folk scene. A mutual respect was quickly formed, and they soon began sitting with one another, developing a musical chemistry that would form the foundation of their sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhaZ-UHMktk Trista Selous is a wonderful singer of traditional songs in English and French plus some great songs of her own. She has been a keen attendee of the Goose Is Out Singarounds and also runs one of her own locally.
