Folk in Hull is an organisation in Hull run by musicians which aims to keep music live, abundant, varied and inspiring in the city. We run nights at local venues which celebrate the sounds of our city and also invite musicians from around the world to come and play here. We are working hard to establish regular events that offer audiences great music to experience and also offer bands a platform to perform their music.

FOLK @ PAVE

HULL'S NEWEST LIVE FOLK, ROOTS AND WORLD MUSIC NIGHT.

THURSDAY 17TH NOVEMBER

CELTABRABIA
With winter approaching and the nights getting dark and cold, why not come warm up and journey to far off mystic lands, transported by the intoxicating reverberations and grooves of Celtarabia. Celtarabia play a daring fusion of Arabic, Andalucian, Celtic, Medieval music and contemporary beats designed to get bodies dancing. Some of this country's finest world dance musicians play the wildest cross-over music being made in England today.
Featuring Hurdy-Gurdy, Hammered Dulcimer, Vocals, Cittern, African and Arabic Percussion, Drum kit and Bass Guitar.


MICK McGARRY
Legendary folk singer Mick McGarry's powerful distintive voice is a testimony to a lifetime spent singing and collecting traditional songs from all around the British Isles. Folk songs, work songs, shanties and protest songs that span the last hundreds of centuries will be performed by Mick accompanied by Brian Nelson on guitar and mandolin

Shiznitz will be playing at The Polar Bear pub, Spring Bank, Hull, this Saturday (16th June). Gig starts at 9pm, and entry is free!

Although they haven't played at any of Folk in Hull's many splendiferous promotions, this band are clearly the best new folk to come out of Hull since the Watersons!
"27th best band in Hull" says TenFootCity magazine.

This is a chance to see them for FREE before they are too famous to play for the likes of Hull folk again (tickets may cost as much as £3.50 in the future). Bring a Trident!

Have a listen to some of our music here !
