Well we started a new folk club in Blairgowrie just two months ago. Our First concert was a great success with about 60 in the audience. There were 6 acts who performed for 15/20 mins plus a few floor singers.
The second concert was last night and we had a turn out of just short of 40.to listen to 4 acts who each did a short set in each half plus a couple of floor singers, two of whom had never sang in public before but both had beautiful voices. What was really good was we had a youngster turn out who played two short sets and is keen to come back again.
We have a pool of about 7 or 8 who are willing to turn out every now and then and play for free for 15 mins. "Residents" or whatever you want to call them while we establish a regular audience and can afford to pay for an act.
The concerts are on the first Thursday of the month so the next one is on THURSDAY JULY 5TH. Anyone passing pop in.
Every Thursday night there is a session in the bar, we have had good nights great nights and poor nights but we are hopeful of it continuing.
