Hello -


I play regularly with a friend (two guitars, one voice - very occasional backing vocals) and we're looking for other musicians who might be interested to get involved. Pretty firmly in the folk/bluegrass/acoustic spectrum I guess, we play some covers (Wagon Wheel, Caleb Meyer, Matty Groves, Miss Ohio etc) and some of our own. We're OK I guess, nothing incredibly special (and not looking to 'make it'! ha) but really enjoying playing and would like to start doing more gigs (currently occasional open mics). I guess the dream would be to find a violinist familiar with these styles of music who happens to sing lovely harmonies and who wants to play every week or so but would love to hear from anyone interested. Mandolin could also work really well and another voice could really add texture too...


A high standard of wooly jumpers is a bonus.


Cheers

Pete

There are a number of folk musicians locally who go to sessions and/or a South East London folk orchestra.


If you contact me via http://www.thegooseisout.com I can send you details.


On my phone at the moment and don't have them to hand.


ETA: You are also welcome to come down any time and do an unbooked floorspot at any of our club nights, or a song at our Singaround. We have booked some people for "proper" gigs this way.


See our website for more details.


ETA (again!): A number of people have got together to sing and play after meeting at our Singarounds and some have gone on to make albums which have been well reviewed in the mainstream press :)

    • That's not a bad idea, though I also want to keep the site as simple and user friendly as possibly. It's ultimately about getting a balance between being informative and being a good read. Stars are useful but I'd like people to read the reviews too. 
    • Standard places haven’t got any? Anyone seen any on sale this week? thanks
    • Sue. You really don’t have to keep saying about the electoral system    a) we all know about it b) it doesn’t matter    FPTP is the system we have always had and hopefully we will get rid of it someday but it is what it is    when anyone suggests changing the system Corbyn is right there at the front of the queue to prevent it   so its pointless him or any of supporters complaining about it    the evidence you want is the result of the elections. You can’t have clearer evidence. 
    • Has anyone from the school commented? Have they said why? Is it a fresh start? Is it that Grove in the name may have connotations of wealth and they want to attract more applicants from a wider area? Is that it currently is linked to the DKH Estate?
