All 'Catters are cordially invited to the launch of my - Ian Pittaway's - new solo album, 'Lovers Beggars Soldiers Sailors' - 14 tracks, vocals and 4 guitars in various tunings, mostly English, mostly traditional, with some William Byrd and Bruce Cockburn.

The launch will be on Monday 7th February 2011, 8.00pm at Warwick Folk Club, Warwick Arms Hotel, High Street, Warwick, CV34 4AT. I will be performing songs from the album, with support from Roister and King Alfred's Cakes. If you're a singer or musician, there will be a few floor spots, too.

This page on Warwick Folk Club's website tells you more.

If you come because you're a 'Catter who has read this, please come and introduce yourself!
