Hi,

A couple of events coming up in Barnsley this month -

Weds June 21st Summer Solstice - Club Regulars will be performing at Dirty O Dwyers in Barnsley town centre (at the top of the arcade, opposite the town hall) from 8pm - Michelle Howell, John Platt, Zoe Bottomley, Dave Bottomley and the pre-club session musicians (john, dave and me with cool new electric violin will all be performing) Terry, an occasional visitor to the club will be performing earlier in the evening.

John Connolly will be at the Club on the 26th - very entertaining singer with lots of chat in between and if you didn't know already, composer of the ''Trad'' ''Irish'' song Fiddlers Green.

Coming up we have a local showcase night with Zoe Bottomley, and others to be confirmed on 17th July.

We have a committee meeting on 18th July in the Pub - all are invited to attend.

Worth of note is the Barnsley Original Music Festival (BOM FEST) at the Miners' Memorial Park on Sat 22nd July, a free music festival, with an Acoustic and Roots stage - Rotherham Artist Julie Ellison will be performing, amongst others TBC.
