Dear Friends

Jeff Warner, Wagon Tales & the Breakspears Southern Harmony Singers, The Old Nuns Head, Nunhead 21st May 2011. Doors 7:30pm, £5 to get in.

Heavens above, finding a new venue has not been a walk in the park. Not to be defeated, we have found a temporary mooring at the Old Nun's Head in, you guessed it, Nunhead, nestled between Peckham and New Cross.

And to tempt you back into our arms we have a triple bill of American traditions:

Jeff Warner - http://home.comcast.net/~jfwtm/home.html

Among the nation's foremost interpreters of traditional music, from the lumber camps, fishing villages and mountaintops of America, Jeff's songs connect 21st century audiences with the everyday lives–and artistry–of 19th century Americans. Jeff grew up listening to the songs and stories of his father Frank Warner and the traditional singers his parents met during their folksong collecting trips through rural America. On a whistle stop visit to these shores, catch him while you can…

Wagon Tales - http://wagontales.co.uk/

Push the tables against the walls – the Wagon Tales are an energetic bluegrass band who play up tempo bluegrass with a raw blues sound. They pride themselves on their rich vocal harmonies and the ability to create a good old knees up.

Breakspears Southern Harmony Singers - http://breakspearsouthernharmony.blogspot.com/

A twelve-strong group following the tradition of Sacred Harp singing from a 200 yr old songbook of gallant, rousing anthems, saturated in 4-part harmonies and intricate lyrical layers.

Three acts – that's THREE – plus floor spots, the raffle London has been missing like billy-o, Brand New Venue, plastic flowers, dancing, singing along, and general ebullience abounding… Come back to us! We've missed you… All our Love,
