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.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?

      Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s

      The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
