The Final Fridays season of live music at Aquarius Golf club continues through the summer with another highlight of live music, with free admission. This Friday, Hungry Grass will be playing an extended set of traditional and contemporary Irish music, in their own, hugely entertaining and musically attacking style.


Hungry Grass is an established and tight-knit unit of hugely accomplished musicians who perform across the UK and Europe, and are widely regarded as one of the finest Irish bands out there.


A five-piece who play their own brand of energised traditional Irish and original music, from fast and furious reels to soulful ballads with a strong emphasis on improvisation and spontaneity. Five musicians who played the London circuit over the last decade, then met at the top of their circles and came together to create the sound known today by their followers as ?goat music?.


?With an ultimate respect to the old music and where the music is going to, we can merely steer it, enjoy it, shape it and add to it? For it will out-live us all.?

?It?s music not just to suffice the masses, but to fill the glasses, call the shots and make people laugh.?


Peter Coughlan, lead vocalist, has a powerful, poetic Irish voice that moves his audiences and has led to comparisons with some of Ireland?s greatest folk singers. He is regarded as a once in a generation Irish ballad singing hero who breathes powerful sincerity, grace and beauty into every song he sings. If you haven?t seen him sing live yet, now you have the chance. So do so. Seriously.


The golf club?s intimate surroundings and fine acoustics will make this a truly unforgettable evening of the very best in live music with very distinctive Gaelic roots. Hungry Grass is looking forward to a return to the Aquarius, where they headlined at last year?s ?Unplugged? mini-festival.


Once again, we hope to repeat (or even exceed) the awesome success of the Hit Men (UK) at last month?s Final Friday, and hope to see many of the crowd that came to enjoy that phenomenal night returning for another great night of live music.


Hungry Grass always pulls a crowd wherever they perform, and hopefully will attract a few fans from further afield than the local neighbourhood to the Aquarius experience.


Music will start at around 8.00pm, and admission, as for all of the Final Fridays events, is FREE.


If you have a taste for the raucous, rebel rousing sounds of one of the finest traditional Irish bands in the country, then get along to Aquarius Golf Club for a night of pure musical energy and astonishing live performance.


Aquarius Golf Club is found through a gate at the end of Marmora Road, SE22 0RY.


Copious street parking space outside the club. Bus routes 63 and 363. Nearest station Honor Oak.

      Leaving the country having been made somewhat more difficult than it used to be.  Can't quite put my finger on why.

      This Wednesday 17th SEptember - National Demo Against Trump's State Visit

      By IlonaM · Posted

      In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
